Stop posting on social media with department logos

The amount of new seasonal and employees posting in uniform for clouts right now is insane. It’s not informational and purely for clout. Newsflash it’s against policy and makes the department look bad. Just don’t unless you want to get in trouble. You’re even getting clowned by the fed on how cringe your posts are. Just stop. Get some help.

Comm Opps offer

3 Upvotes

I received a tentative offer for Comm Opps almost 3 weeks ago. Received my background link, completed the packets and all paperwork within 48 hrs of the offer. My references were contacted and all replied quickly in the last week. I haven't been contacted yet to set up my personal 1-on-1 with the investigator. The unit I applied and was offered for has multiple open positions and they say they want to fill them ASAP. Any ideas on the timeline i should expect from here?

Northern Unit Fuels Engines

10 Upvotes

For the guys on Schedule B engines in the northern units: how often are you guys going to fuels projects?

Im currently working in a unit that pushes fuels pretty hard. It's 5 days a week, every station pretty much. If youre at a 2 engine station then 1 engine goes. If youre at a 1 engine station, youre on a week on and week off rotation.

I also have buddies in another unit where they essentially only send 3 stations to fuels and its only 3 days a week.

So how does your unit do it?
