you must think we are fools to make your fallacious argument so transparent. When somebody uses the word "mansplaining" you should react the same way as if they had their fingers in their ears and was shouting "LALALALA!" because it amounts to the same thing. when they say "mansplaining" they are trying to de-legitimize your position through a smear of the character of your gender. ​ it is foolish to listen to somebody who will not listen to you.

i actually try not to work in the off season. I save up and live very modestly. it takes a few months after the season ends for my body to fully recover. My feet go back to normal, my back/kneck/knees/hips/shoulders stop hurting etc...

there simply are not enough trained firefighters. and we would be pissed if we were being held in reserve while american lives were at risk from something that we could actually do something about.

depends on what outfit you apply to. Franco is a straight up Mexican crew, and there is a new company out as of last year that is owned by a Chinese firm. (i don't remember their company name, but they had awfully clean looking gear)

this is silly. ​ grouping firefighters and police in the same category is ridiculous. ​ ​ ​

well, this is referring to structural fire departments. i honestly do not know how those boys roll. the wildland firefighter community is what I know, and the one time I heard anything racist it was quashed fast. ​

it's not bad if you start and maintain a good pace.

the wildland firefighting community IS dis-proportionally white but not from any bias or anything that i have seen the few people of any color that I would NOT trust with my life, well they wash out pretty fast. ​

private companies will pay you as little as they can get away with, just like any other company. i get 15 bucks an hour, and .50 cents extra an hour for overtime. we can easily clear 100 hours a week. so the money you get comes from the overtime rather than the wage itself. that may change soon, i'm hoping.

i don't know how the logistics side of things work, I think they are sometimes government and sometimes private. I would not know where to look for those jobs other than at the FEMA website maybe. ​ ​

the pack test is easy. keeping it together for two solid weeks of extreme body conditioning under absurdly stressful conditions, that shit ain't easy. ​ we get alot of ex-military, very few of them stay longer than one season. ​ the work is BRUTAL. there will be times where you can't even fathom what the fuck you are doing there. I've seen people break. I broke, and it was a long shitty climb back up to where i was an effective team member again. ​ all that being said. Best job ever.

my training was a week of class, 4-6 hours a day unpaid. (second year they paid me for the class, which you have to take every year.) after you take the class, you are a firefighter trainee, and will start getting paid as soon as they call you out to a fire. after you meet a few time requirements, you will become an "experienced firefighter" and no longer a trainee. (2 months tops) ​

seen that before. :) the ones who make it usually go on to do ok, but hell man, i can barely make it through a run normally. hat's off to you man. it must have been a bitch.

there are many private companies out there, and i advise starting private. with one season under your belt, you can go government side and make a bit more money. try PatRick. they are a great outfit. you will need to get some free computer courses on the fema website. 'NIMS' and another one i don't remember. the classes are stupid, have no bearing whatsoever on firefighting but are required by the government, takes a few hours. whatever outfit you apply to should provide you with the information…

i'll say this. my first year we had a girl. 110lbs soaking wet. Chick was a badass, consistently worked circles around everyone else on the crew and i'm not ashamed to admit it. could she drag my 200 pound frame? no but she could dig twice as much line as me and ask for seconds.

don't forget suicide. wildland firefighters kill themselves every year in statistically significant numbers.

you wouldn't have trouble getting hired now. the fire season starts sooner and ends later and the trend will likely continue.

yeah man. every year around mid-july, we start getting recruitment messages in our morning briefing, because EVERY national resource is currently assigned to one fire or another, which leaves nothing for any new fires that pop up. This means that one month after fire season starts, there are ZERO resources to send anywhere, this includes engines, air support, and all trained firefighters. So if you are governing a place that has a wildfire break out around that time, all you can do is watch it b…

I am a Wildland Firefighter/ FF1 squad boss on a type II initial attack crew. I work for a private company that get contracts from federal and state government. We will hire ANYBODY who can pass the pack test( 3 miles in 40 minutes with a 45lb pack) and isn't CURRENTLY strung out on meth. Many new recruits wash out in the first two weeks and we see fewer wildland firefighters returning each year, which means having to retrain more people. Any firefighting company will train you for free. This wi…

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
