It's not the certifications that always count, its your performance on the job. There are too many people out there that have all kinds of certifications, but not a clue what to do on the street. Of course you will always find those guys that need to inflate their ego, have all kinds of certs, think they know what to do and are in charge. They are the ones that just scew evereything up when they get to the scene. There are only three people that you can count on when things get bad. Yourself, a good partner and God. Everyone stay safe.

Very well put. But do not forget that the way we train will be the way we react in an emergency. Neither 'street smarts' nor training alone will help you (or your victim/aided/patient) It is a combination of these two things added with the common sense that God gave (or failed to give) you that will see you through to a successful resolution of the emergency.

STAY SAFE and LOW!

I totally agree!  Looking back, I do have a ton of certs, but that doesnt mean anymore than the paper that they are wrote on.  

I have met folks from the largest of cities that have no clue(one comes to mind recently where a career Lt from a large city here in Va once told me that his truck even carried a 5" diameter HAND nozzle (and those around here thats used 5" lines know they are pretty much an above ground alaskian pipeline) for those really big fires, and he knew his guys could carry and handle it....when asked for him to show it, it was sorta out of service???)

Yet I have met folks that had to pencil the lettering in on their trucks, had no clue what SCBA was, and hydrants?  What were they?
And these guys had more respect for one another, for their trucks, and could find more ingenouis to fight fires than I could ever think.

We come from all walks of life, I am just glad to be part of the family!

Today I find out that if you FDNY or EMS guys didn't sign for a physical. The one related to breathing mostly the 31st is the last day. You will be SHit out of luck if anything happens to you. Now it seems no one was telling anyone in Communication and also alot of FF.Since I'm on LODI not a mention to me from any one. I found out through a friend I work ed with on the MTTF back aways. Do any FDNY/EMS/PD anyone know the deal. I aint even started with my breathing ,site hearing yet. I just want my 2 other operations and let me out of this PAIN I deal with. The nightmares are getting worse and real with the Shit I'm seeing. GOD WHY COULDN"T I save someone.  Why were there so many body parts. I am asshammed throwing parts all around instead of compioleing what I found.  SHIT GUYS I fucked up. I had no control for awhile. I cant stand watching those people disapear under those slabs of steel.  PLEASE GOD FOR GIVE ME FOR not running in Fast enough. I must have been a Coward.  NEVER leave yor buddies behind is all that goes through my head.

1) No racial slurs or comments. This isn't about being "PC" it's about respecting each other.
