I love to Calfire. It may feel like I was part of a family, and it may be serve a purpose that was above and beyond myself. He gave me stature in the community and respect by those I helped. I got to experience fighting, fire firsthand and helping people and saving lives along the way. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life. The only downfall was being away as much as I was from my family and friends.

Pros and Cons
Free living while on shift, great Retirement, greatinsurancehealthcare.,com, and great salary
Away from the family a little too much I think
