Career Options
Hey guys,
I'm just tossing ideas around at the moment not looking to make a big jump just yet.
Currently I work for a career municipal fire department. I knew when I got hired what we made and what the benefits were. Seems like year after year the city council and our department administration keeps taking a dump on us and we have to carry 3 jobs just to make ends meet. In the recent council meeting on next years budget, our Police chief got up there and fought for his guys saying that the pay is not high enough and they can't survive, while the fire chief stated that he was content with the current budget. Take in mind however that the PD starts at over 10k more than a firefighter.
Now no one out there loves this job more than me but I'm tired of being broke and sh** on!
Are there any jobs maybe in the safety end of things that my 9 years in the fire service and being an EMT would qualify me for? I'm not too familiar with what's all out there so any input would be greatly appreciated!
Sorry for the rant before the question too!
