What kills me is the calls that people can tell what happened and still ask "What happened" We have made some what of a game out of it. The interstate wrecks are the best place to do it. Most of the time the cars are going slow enough for the driv...
hahaha, wow, thats totally funny!
I was walking out of the fire building to take of my SCBA, put my tools away, and help the Engine Co guys repack their hose when a woman came up to me and said, "Was there a fire here?" I stopped, turned around, looked back at the building with th...
i loved that one and i hope you don’t mind am going to use it lmao
We had a false alarm at a nursing home and the other FF and myself went to put our gear away. My officer was still inside, in full PPE getting information. I went in to get his SCBA for him and one of the nusres asked if that was a fire extinguish...
Needed another sign the other day. I'm sitting in a stack of patio chairs, in the bay, reading a book. One of god's gifts to the department, walks in, looks at me and says...."What are you doing?"
These are hilarious.
The funniest one I remember was actually an incident involving one of our one fire fighters about 2 weeks ago.
Exact conversation.
2106 to Halifax

We were working a bumper thumper once when some clown screeched to a stop, leaned out his window, and excitedly gasped at 200 mph, "OHMYGOD,IT'SAWRECK,ISTHEREANYTHINGICANDO?" to which i took a cue and fired back just as fast and almost as excitedl...

Were quite a bit more rural then that. Once we are out of the main section of town, we can go for quite a few miles down a single road without any type of intersection. When we are coming to an intersection out of town, no matter what type, I hit ...
I actually used the "parking cars in trees" one the other night excpet I subbed in a power pole instead. The look on that poor fellows face was priceless!
"What's goin on up there?"
"We're just parking cars in power poles, that one up ahead is ta...
Siren or not, someone's gonna get a chunk of change either way if they get hit by a fire truck. Half the time noone hears em during the day anyways with their little tuner cars and subwoofers, exhaust, etc.
That's some funny stuff!!! Can't think of anything off the top of my head though I know I've heard a few.
My fav. is when they ask and try to do it anyway.
Oh man. I remember one run when I worked in Toledo many many moons ago. Like 1986 or 87. We go to a shooting with 16`s. The ALS car was cancelled because the gal just had a VERY minor knick on her upper arm from the bullet passing thru the door he...
