My son is a firefighter/paramedic - NEW INFO

Tweet

He heard from the new fire station and they want to see him back on Monday to another interview! It can only be good, in my opinion. Fingers and toes crossed and prayers and good thoughts appreciated! Thank you so much! I had my son at an early age. We sort of grew up together. He has an old soul, thankfully, because mine is a spaz. To my story. He has been working in a city for about 14 or so years and the management of the place has gone down hill. They are now very short handed, where once people were applying for jobs there by the hundreds. So my son has decided to search for a job elsewhere. He had to do an agility test for the new place, to show he can still move quickly and efficiently during stressful times. Carrying big hoses, up and down ladders, running with all of his gear on and other firefighting skills. As he explained all of the obstacles, I was getting out of breath! But he kept telling me more. Finally he finished and asked me how long I thought it took him to complete the course. I said 15 minutes. He laughed and said, not you, ME! I said 10 minutes. He said, I’ll just tell you. Three minutes and forty six seconds. I know! I was shocked too. I know he is in good health, he eats right, works hard even when not at the firehouse, but 3.46 is quick to do all he told me. I do hope he gets the job. He wants it so much and it will be good for him to get away from the negativity of where he is currently . Happy thoughts his way please! Thanks!
