how much do you get paid. can a girl be a firefighter

Asked by madison woolley about 8 years ago

when I first started in 1989 it was 14,261 a year and now mid 60's. Up in the East Coast and West coast it is considerably higher due to the cost of living. We currently have 2 female fighters and one of them had a baby last year and back at woork.

you respond to a 1 story home fully involved. The chief orders you to put water on fire Bldg from the adjacent 4 story exposure building. You have enough hose to cover the 4th floor. Where do you attack from? 4th floor window or 2nd floor window?

Asked by Jj Watt about 8 years ago

I would anticipate attacking from the 2nd floor especially since it is only 1 story.

Is it hard to becomes a firefighter paramedic?

Asked by .... over 8 years ago

Learning to be a firefighter is a continuous career that involves training all the time. Paramedic is more intensive in that it usually takes 2 yrs to complete and now is considered a Associates Degree. It is harder to become a paramedic between the 2 in brain knowledge but physically firefighting is more labor intensive.

My girlfriend is having a baby so my question is what car seat have u seen personally save the most lives. And most infinite/children r killed because the car seat isn't installed correctly can I go to a firehouse and will u show me how to instill

Asked by Jessy Wolsleben over 8 years ago

The best person to ask that would be the consumer safety commission, they tend to monitor these matters. As for installation a large majority of police and fire depts have employees trained just for that. Our police dept handles thos for us.
