M. Stone Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 *I come back down, freshly showered, and check the Duty Room for the new assignments that were supposedly coming. I smile as I see I had been assigned to ride as acting on the ladder. That was great, it'd be good practice for when I hopefully promoted - someday in the future. And I had a solid crew on the ladder with me - Hannahan, Noel, both definitely solid firefighters. I wasn't sure who Rogers was, so it must be one of the new probies. I head out to the bay and grab my gear from the engine, moving it over to the front right seat of the ladder. Damn, it felt nice to be riding front and not as the driver. I look over the truck, nodding appreciatively. Raven had gotten it cleaned up after they killed that deer on the way to the mill, and she was spic and span now. I head back into the lounge.* Quote Acting Platoon Chief Marcus Stone Unit 22 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 1909 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K. Clark Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 *i enter the Bay and grab my Kit and put it next to the truck* 'Damn this truck is nice wish the academy had something like this all theirs are older shitty rigs guess its time to check the rig and see where everything is' *has i start opening up the truck i hear the call go out for a choking child* "shit hope everything is okay with the child and the crews on scene' *has i finish up looking at the truck i head back to lounge* Quote Firefighter Kathrine Clark Engine 1 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E. Sjostrom Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 *Parking M7 back in the bay I cut off the engine and get out of the truck yawning. Though we hardly used anything I go around the unit opening up compartments to check stock. Hoping up into the back of the truck I do the same. We're still pretty well stocked on everything but taking a mental note of some stuff to restock on I get out of the truck and go to the storage room. Coming back I quickly restock the truck, shut compartment doors, and head to the living room with another yawn.* Quote EMT Erika Sjostrom Medic 1 Shiloh County Fire Department EMS Badge 1315 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Sparks Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) *Bobby parks in the bay. I get out of the cab and make my way to the supply room. I grab a few items to restock and head back to Medic 5. I do a quick restock of the Jump bag, and cabinets and close the back doors. I notice Frank in the bay flailing around like a mad man doing some sort of aerobics from the 80s...or at least something that appears like it...he must of had a bump or something recently. How his heart hasn't exploded yet...I'll never know.* *I head over to the lounge, throwing my empty Starbucks Latte cup in the garbage as I leave the bay.* Edited March 25, 2020 by Chris07 Quote Logan Sparks, Paramedic Medic 2 Shiloh County Fire Department, EMS Badge 1808 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K. Clark Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 *has i walk into the Bay area i grab my gear of the Truck and move it to the engine* 'lets see how engine's going to be' *i place my bunker pants down on the floor and place my coat and hood on the handle next to the door and head back to the lounge* Quote Firefighter Kathrine Clark Engine 1 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Gray Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 *I head out to the bay to set up my gear by the ladder. I'm a little uncertain of what's expected of me here - I don't exactly know how things work at this station yet. I start poking through the ladder compartments, same as I did with the engine last shift. This was how I got used to where everything was on the ambulance when I started out all those years ago and the same principles still apply. We're a three man crew so I have to be capable - there's no one who's going to really be watching over my shoulder. I'm not a fan of feeling out of my depth - I'm starting from basically the bottom. I didn't have much time on a truck firefighting before I moved here; only a handful of months.* Quote Firefighter Paramedic Michaela Gray Rescue 9 Shiloh County Fire Department Badge 1208 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Sparks Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 *Walking out into the Bay I meet Dunne* 'Sup Ror-ay' I say enthusiastically. 'What do you want to do today? Drive or attend?'

R. Dunne Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 *It's a shock when someone is actually friendly towards me and I try to respond in kind.* 'Hey Logan. I can drive if you'd prefer.' *I'm not really picky one way or the other but with my clinical shifts at the hospital and this, some time away from patient contact isn't a bad thing. Gives me some time to recharge and review things in my head. We're coming up on the end of my last semester and I'm still a touch behind on my capstone project. It's a a lot. The two of us finish checking the ambulance out for the shift and everyone is toned out on an MVC with possible fatalities.* 'I suppose that means us as well then. If they're dispatching it as a possible fatality it's probably gonna be gristly.'
