Actually I LIKE the Fire Department but you cops get too much shit so I figured I'd give you guys the day off. After all, EVERYONE likes the Fire Department. Let them carry the load for a day.
Enjoy your day off.

They can't hear you - they're too busy busting theirs to save yours by running in while you were running out so they can walk where the devil dances. They are more equal than the rest of us, which is why the cops see them as heroes. I think I missed one...something about capes.
These catchphrases just don't seem as badass unless they're on the back if a tshirt or vehicle owned by a guy who never goes anywhere (church,date night, to the store) ,without his FD radio on a custom-made leather strap around his shoulder.

Fire department guys are just functionally retarded.
The inspectors make up shit they want, never remembering what they actually said. Then when pressed for the ordinance that calls out the specific code being adopted, they either go back to their hole or spitter AHJ...I’m the AHJ! The rest of the brass think they know things but are constantly wrong. Calling a tamper switch a PIV. Pointing out small panels on the ceiling and telling new recruits that each one was a smoke detector, except they’re all the test buttons for the emergency lighting. The firefighters themselves only know to put the wet stuff on the hot stuff. Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach. Those that can’t do or teach can have a long career in the fire department. I kid! Sorta. Unfortunately, a lot of this is true. |

"Gay for firefighting" Typically only seen on vollys in cow town who's fire experience consists of barn and car fires. Won't catch me wearing shit to identify myself off duty unless it's a ratty old dept shirt I wear when painting or something. I do have a custom made radio strap though. Plan to hang it on the den wall next to my helmet when I retire in a few years. Both have been with me for 19 years. I'm a little gay I guess. |

I keep inviting the cops in for dinner and recliner time. But none of them take me up on it.
The sheriff's office budget is fairly tight. They run their patrol deputies ragged. To the point that they are sending fire out for calls that have been historically pd. Kinda sucks, because we have no authority to actually do anything. |

Fire department guys are just functionally retarded.
Well, we do run into burning buildings... The inspectors make up shit they want, never remembering what they actually said. As an electrician before I became certified as an inspector I HATED that. If there's an issue, write it. Then when pressed for the ordinance that calls out the specific code being adopted, they either go back to their hole or spitter AHJ...I’m the AHJ! Those are the guys who keep the municipal attorneys employed defending - or explaining - untenable demands. Seen them kicked ot the side on court more than once, but it takes $$$ to do so. The rest of the brass think they know things but are constantly wrong. Hey, they know how things used to be, 20 years ago. Calling a tamper switch a PIV. 
Pointing out small panels on the ceiling and telling new recruits that each one was a smoke detector, except they’re all the test buttons for the emergency lighting. 
The firefighters themselves only know to put the wet stuff on the hot stuff. The people who know the flaws in the above are the ones who need to step up and correct the brass. Barn bosses exist for a reason. Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach. There are a lot of those. Those that can’t do or teach can have a long career in the fire department. But only after being sent to the train-the-trainer class at department expense. I kid! Sorta. Unfortunately, a lot of this is true. BTST. Too much is factual. |

Of course you need to supply your own ladder if the unit is rooftop mounted for the inspector or you will get a violation which is several hundred dollars.
