First day, wow, we got a new firefighter! The old guy, by old I mean that he had 10 years on the job, left and went to a slower station. That was a good move for him. Back to the new firefighter, I think we traded up, because the new guy is 5’ 6” and the old guy was 5”5”, I think. They are both small.
We took the new guy out and did a ladder pipe operation to see how he would do. He did alright, but I think he is going to need some work. We called him to the front office and sat him down and told him what we expected and that he had to have a good attitude. Attitude is 90 percent of the job. With a good attitude you can be taught and will want to learn. We told him what we wanted from him and we will see if it happens.
Oh yea, it was my birthday yesterday, so I bought dinner for all the guys. Crutchfield cooked it, but I bought it.
