Incredible! People are horrible, selfish pieces of shit who take advantage of other people?! That is news to me!

See:
Corruption in federal and local government
Retail workers stealing from the back room
Hospital workers neglecting patients with bad insurance
Retirement home workers stealing from the elderly
Housekeepers/Nannies stealing from the families they work for
Etc, etc, etc, always was, always will be

People suck.

Screw firefighters in general. They get paid wayyyyyy too much when you compare their salaries to police.

And as the icing on the cake, they have enough free time to find a 2nd FULL TIME JOB. What a frickin joke.

I'd be all willing to pay police more if they actually took time to go after the violent crimes instead of just setting up DUI busts and speed traps. And god forbid those going after kids just hanging out somewhere.

OP what did the NYFD do to you, gangbang your chick or something? There isn't too much interaction they have other than putting out shit and getting people out of it.

I get so annoyed when I see 2 fire trucks at a fender bender. There are 2 police cars there doing the report, then you see 2 fire trucks with 10 firemen asking 2 people "Are you ok?" "Do you need help?"

YES I need help with your enormous waste of our tax money. All i see is firefighters hanging out at restaurants or running laps at the local high school. And when i dont see them there, I see a couple fire trucks hanging out for over an hour at a minor fender bender. They spend more time standing around then they do actually risking their life and, you know, fighting fires?

Police put their lives on the line on a weekly basis. Firefighters put their life on the line maybe a couple times a year, if that. And that is giving them the benefit of the doubt.

God you really need to get a clue? Are you 14?

Nope?

Now please justify your full time pay for a part time job. Please justify why you sometimes get paid more than police when you do half the job they do.

How many actual fires have you fought?

There is a reason why there is always a huge waiting list for people to become firefighters. The word got out that its easy money.

Please justify why my tax dollars should be paying for douchebags like these guys

Not saying they aren't necessary, I am just saying they are vastly overpaid for the amount of work they do. Just like realtors.

A pretty high majority of the jobs in America are overpaid for the amount of work that they do.

I mean, come on, Howard Stern makes, what, $100 MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR?!?!?!

How many overpaid firefighters does THAT make up for?

How much revenue does howard stern bring in compared to others? That's the key you are missing.

Not enough since Sirius is going bankrupt

I'd be very afraid of a woman who thought I was...small...

And I'd be wary of any man who thought I was geeky...


One would probably be...hell, never mind.
