Wondering all about firefighters...?

Question

What is the average hiring age? How long are their shifts? What are the job differences between the ones who put the fire out and the ones that rescue? Other differences? What is the best and worst thing about being a firefighter? How long does it take to become one? Do they receive counselling? Is it true a lot of them are high on themselves? How do they like to unwind? Do they enjoy getting their pictures taken from fans? Is it true women arent really allowed at a firestation? How cool is it to drive those trucks? Do all firefihters sleep at the station or just those working during the night? What kinds of things are they required to do for charity work and how often do they have to do it? Do they generally feel appreciated by their communities? Are they allowed to ask a woman out while on the job? Are most of them married? Do they really take turns cooking meals? What other cool things about them should I know? I am a huge fan of firefighters and just want to know all about them.

Answer 1

Then why not go to your local firehouse and ask them these questions? You will get much better answers than you will here on YahooAnswers.
