Have a Plan! If you have been trying to get hired by a fire department, you have probably had some interesting experiences – both good and bad. You have run into problems that you may or may not have overcome. Here's an example of a simple fire problem. You give an on-scene size-up at a residential fire.

You Must Come Out Swinging!

Keep the Home Fires Burning! The phone rings. You get the call. It is happening. You are moving forward. Well, first things first. Yes, your career is making the next move and you are headed to the academy. But, let’s not forget the ones who stood by and encouraged you along the way, were your sounding board, stayed awake at night to figure out how you could get a badge. Yup – you guessed it - your family. Rookies that are married test their relationship especially when they get into the academy and go through probation. To be more clear, [...]
