I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you are actually a Fire truck

We're here for any concerns you may have with this life changing news.

Had a job in 2011 where the guy had asked us to get his snake after the initial knock. Fire was upstairs, snake down, so we hadn't seen it yet. We go in, and this fucker had to be 8 foot long. Hell no.

The guy was transported, and wife was not fucking with this Jumanji escapee either. We ended up calling a guy I went to high school with to get it out,and he just let the snake stay the night with him, with no fucking tank.

Like they're old buddies after hitting the bar or some shit.

Not from Boston but I'll pitch in.

Most difficult are generally dead kids. I've had a sids & a murder suicide that a 2 year old was involved in.

ODs frustrate the shit out of me, because if how selfish and preventable it is, but those don't really beat you up that bad.

It's a pretty physical job, and the better shape you're in the less likely you are to get hurt or get someone killed. You don't need to be a marathon runner, but couch potatoes will get fried. (Get it?)

Thank you for caring enough to ask. Most people don't give a shit. I've been yelled at for making a mess on the way to and from the patient.

There used to be an unnamed volly dept that would have "stripper & beer night" every few months. Became a pretty big thing to keep under wraps though.
