I thanked the garbage man the other day.


DON’T BE TOO PROUD OF THIS TECHNOLOGICAL TERROR YOU’VE CONSTRUCTED. THE ABILITY TO DESTROY A PLANET IS INSIGNIFICANT NEXT TO THE POWER OF THE FORCE.

Bus Drivers too, screaming kids grabbing the steering wheel - punching the gas pedal to the floorboard. Being robbed.

If you say so, over paid ambulance chasers that spend the majority of their time getting ready to go to work. None ever quit or get fired. But that's why there's a waiting line to just get interviewed and little to no chance to get hired in the large market high paying jobs. The fireman should get cops pay and cops get fireman pay. I have a bunch of fireman friends and they really appreciate their jobs.

Best free hamburgers. They don't even check if you are poverty stricken!

Not sure about your neck of the woods, but here, the avg. firefighter base salary is $91k. An officer is $81k.

Edit to add: The seniority list in my department is mostly people with under 5 years of service. The next group, consisting of about 30%, have 15+ years of service. The missing middle are the people who quit or get fired.

Its just a job to do because we are adrenaline junkies. At least I was. $4.25 per hour was all it took to lure me in and get me hooked.

WOW!!! I answered the call for 25 years and the only pay I received was for the three times I was selected to be a delegate at the State conventions.

No complaints, tho. I'd do it all again for the chance to help my neighbors. Loved every minute of it.

Don't forget the Border Patrol - they work hard every day escorting thousands of illegal aliens into the USA.
