LOL, that's the funniest thing I heard all night.

I agree

Oh yeah, and then you can act all 'grumpy old guy' when they annoy you. And start these hour long rants about 'when I was a wee lad..." :bg:

Sounds like your talking about someone I know. :P

Jimmy maybe you should go to work walkin with a cane just to see what everyone remarks might be.

As it is, all the guys are afraid that I'll break a hip just climbing down from the firetruck. A cane might not be too far off in my future.

just becareful. alright?

come on, stop saying unlucky things.

I agree with Holybell

Nature of the job guys. Things happen.

true. Things happen all the time but if your careful, you won't hurt yourself :P

Not that I mean to worry any of you guys, but the truth of the matter is, no matter how careful you are or how much training you recieve, the unforeseen does occur. The possibiliity of not coming back is a reality. One that Firefighters,and Police don't normally make a big deal out of , yet still , is something that can occur and is always in the back of our minds. So thanks for your concern guys. But you need'nt worry so much. After all, it's not like the city I work in is very large or hazardous.

true. my mistake :P

No biggee. If you really want to know the truth, I've suffered more injury at the hands of Reiyuka and her beloved "Tinky" than I have ever been injured on the job. :P

Lol jimmy about Rie & Tinky.Be careful cuz you might get hurt by Tinky agaian for that remark.I know far to well about getn hurt cuz of our jobs.The scarest moment I had on the job was on 9-27-04.And cuz of it I was ready to turn my badge in.
