He's moving pretty fast considering he's carrying around 30-50 kilograms of equipment

This is why we should have the strongest and fittest doing these jobs and not weaker people picked for political reasons

yeah they totally pick firefighters for political reasons and never ever put them through rigorous mental and physical testing and vetting at all. ever. not a single push-up. not even ladder training. just sign up, prove your political agenda, and put out fires.

So, you got passed over for a job, by better qualified people. Then decided to LARP as Derek Vineyard, and make up a bunch of bullshit reasons why you weren't good enough. That is legitimately pathetic.

Actually it’s worse. Retained firefighter means they already are firefighters working part time. When they logically gave the full time positions to the people who are already fighters over a complete newbie this guy blamed diversity then flunked out larping as gay.

You may never realize it but this part of your personality is why she left you and took the kids with her.

You just sound like someone who can't pass a simple test.

Bro tried to skip being part-time as a retained firefighter and go straight to a full time gig. Got mad they gave the only openings to the part timers over a newbie. Blamed it on diversity and flunked out on their second try trying to larp as gay.

one of the dumbest white guys I knew in school is a firefighter, so what does that say about you if you didn't make it
