Here you go again I hope you NEVER need em Boy.
My son is a firefighter in another district. You have no clue the training they go through. I wonder if you'll insult them after they pull you, your lovely wife, or your grandchild from a burning building or out of a vehicle in which they're entrapped and seriously injured? Instead of insulting all of the men and women who go through the training, how about manning up and go through it as well, then volunteer with your local department. I just can't see you getting up for a call at 2am to save someone who has no connection to you.
Funny. Howver, on a serious note try doing that thru smoke, fire, floors clasping, explosions due to flammable paints, propane all while trying to save a life. P.s. I am not a firefighter. Don't like something this serious being made a joke.
The longer Fireman Kevin stays in the maze, and the more equipment he can roll to the site, the more money he gets from the state.
If the fire is to hot he might want to make a quick exit.
Walk in, make a left, walk out. Duh
That's when he will start kissing there Ass.
When is the last time someone was pulled from a burning building? When was the last time was “entrapped” in a serious car crash??? Rarely!! And the training isn’t all that much!
Signed,
A real firefighter!
Because it doesn’t happen, Bozo 7:47 am. I’m so glad you admitted that you are not a real firefighter!
Bahahahaha! Now that is funny Anon 7:50 AM. Funny but true!
Gladwell would never find his way out.
Make 2 lefts
Guess your a real firefighter in a small rural area. Entrapments and fire rescues aren't all that rare across the busy. But I'm guessing you know that since your a real firefighter.
Warning! Hose jockey trigger alert.
Will a cop run into a burning building for you?? F no.
A firefighter I personally know ran back into a burning house filled with flames and smoke because when they pulled a man out and were trying to keep him alive, the man muttered "Where is my wife?".
Without a hose back-up, he immediately RAN BACK INTO THE BURNING HOUSE, found the woman (who didn't make it) and brought her outside.
This happened in Salisbury.
I don't think 2:36 is a "real firefighter", unless he has a video game that let's him PRETEND HE IS....
When they'er sober, they're great!
He would if there was a butt to kiss on the other end that would get him promoted. He would crash through the walls like the Kool Aid man!!
And this one time...at band camp...
Letter to the Editor, Part 1:
At approximately 3:10 PM on November 10, 2018, Wicomico 911 dispatches Salisbury Fire Station 16 Fire and Paramedic 16 for a stabbing at 502 Swan Road involving 2 patients stabbed.
Paramedic 16 and Engine 16 responded and then Assistant Chief 1 responds.
Paramedic 16 and Engine 16 arrived on scene and staged.
At 3:20 PM Central advised 21A(acting Lieutenant Wismer) that PD on the scene advised that there were two patients, one stabbed in the chest and one unconscious and asked if he would like a second ambulance. Acting Assistant Chief Ron Wismer said "Yeah."
*Um... Why didn't he request a second EMS unit when they were dispatched and was told there were 2 patients in the beginning? Why didn't Assistant Chief O'Barsky request the second ambulance? Why didn't Wicomico Central dispatched 2 ambulances? They have "Priority Dispatching" so it should have automatically popped up on the dispatch screen when taking the call. Two patients always mean two ambulances. But they dispatched a fire truck even though there was no fire.
Paramedic 2 is finally dispatched and responds.
When they finally get to the patient, Assistant Chief "Crash" O'Barsky called Paramedic 2 in a panic and told them they needed to expedite.
At 3:28 PM Assistant Chief O'Barsky advised Central that he was assuming command. Why now? What took so long? You had an incompetent "acting" lieutenant that shouldn't be in charge of any employees. He is an incompetent paramedic and shouldn't be working for the City of Salisbury.
Paramedic 2 arrives at the hospital at the hospital 3:37 PM.
Letter to the Editor, Part 2:
PM 2 asked what time Paramedic 16 arrived at the hospital. Central advised 3:33pm Usually that means it means a DOA/Priority 4 but not certain at this time.
Evidence that the leadership in the Mayor's Office and the Fire Chief's Office at the Salisbury Fire Department shouldn't be running an Emergency Medical Services division, especially in the County. This is a specialty that shouldn't fall under a fire department that makes hiring firemen a priority over life safety. The City of Salisbury under the Leadership of Jake Day, Jim Ireton and Jack Heath has hired 24 firefighters in the last couple of years. Almost double of what they have ever hired in the history of the Salisbury Fire Department. This makes more paid firemen than police officers. We have a failing Salisbury Police Department in dire need of seasoned police officers as well as paramedics. The Salisbury Police Department has to get the Wicomico County Sheriff's Office to handle crash reconstruction scenes as they did for the fatal accident on Rt. 13 this past Thursday. The Salisbury Police Department has to have the Maryland State Police handle murders in the City and has had to all under the leadership of Barbara Duncan, Jim Ireton, Jake Day and Jack Heath.
Why has the City of Salisbury hired 24 additional paid firemen and no paramedics when fire calls are going down and EMS calls are skyrocketing. Sending a fire truck with paid firemen to a crime scene with two patients stabbed in the chest and abdomen doesn't justify a paid firemen's job and it certainly doesn't save lives. The need is for paid paramedics and not paid firemen and always has been.
Jake Day you are an idiot for promoting John Tull to the fire chief's position when he has always been a worthless butt kisser. Jake Day you are an idiot for promoting that little peon Jimmie Gladwell to Deputy Chief of the Salisbury Fire Department. Jack Heath and Muir Boda, you two are idiots for allowing this to happen.
As long as John Tull and the leadership at the Salisbury Fire Department, Jake Day, Jack Heath and Muir Boda as well as the leadership in Salisbury are in power, citizens in Salisbury and Wicomico County are going to continue to die.
Thank God the voters of Wicomico County sent Jack Heath, Muir Boda and Jake Day packing on November 6, 2018 in the County Elections!! How many losses is this for you now Jack? And you Muir?
SHUT UP AND GROW UP. I'm sick of all you people who get insulted over something humorous. People can't even tell a joke anymore without you grown a$$ adults needing to go to therapy. I am so sick of it. Go get a blankie, a binky and go find mama! I certainly hope you are not a male.
I know some real firefighters. Good people. So stop with the stupid jokes. I know, I know, they had to go to school to learn how to put out a fire, they usually have some big truck issues and all but they mean well. Sometimes they even covertly cause fires so they can be heros and rescue things. Some even make Chief and can't spell it because they're dumb as a brick. Now they drive dead dogs around.
"Wars da far?". Lol, oh, and we can't forget their yearly extortion campaign, er, uh donation request. Lol
I love how you come here and complain about the mayor and fire chief hiring all these new people. You know why they hired all of these new people? It's because of the volunteers. The volunteers are the sole reason why the career staff increased. If you guys would have just showed up there wouldn't be any need for more career staff. You had opportunity after opportunity to prove that you were reliable, it never happened. The mayor and the fire chief have an obligation to provide the best service possible to the citizens. What are they supposed to do? Time to take some responsibility and admit that you weren't getting the job done. So if you want to blame someone for the increase of career staffing all you have to do is look in the mirror.
@ November 9, 2018 at 7:47AM. Then go find yourself a corner to cry in.
