C-Shift Probies Hard At Work!

Well, after a quick "ping-pong" from B-Shift and back, here I am once again on C-Shift and ready to blog away. It's good to be back!

Today marked the month two test for James Pulito... and he was all smiles as he headed into the testing realm under the watchful eyes of Captain Gorsuch, Lt. "John Deere" Bradley, and "Hambone" "Megan" Fagan.

Pulito faired rather well in the world of 2 1/2" preconnected Keenan Loops, extinguisher operations, connecting to a hydrant, and "Bread & Butter" preconnect operations. Way to go, Jim!

And then we have none other than month-11 probie, Tom Moung who excitedly reminded us that he has only, "ten shifts left before he teams up with Ben Davis to meet Lucky Lockhart by the bike racks after shift."

Tom is looking forward to finishing his 11 month test on the "bubble machine" so he can devote his time and studies to the ever-dreaded and rapidly approaching ***12 MONTH TEST***!

Tom has proven himself to be a fantastic asset to C Shift and we look forward to seeing him graduate off of probation into the ranks of permanent firefighter/paramedic status!

Way to go Tom, keep it up!

Today C-Shift kept up with our weekly duties and, true to "Prevention Tuesday" fashion, conducted a walk through and pre-plan inspection of Richardson's Furniture. It was nice to get out and take a closer look at some of those potentially dangerous buildings in our district.

More to come soon....
