Currently serving Jasper County Fire Rescue in south Carolina along with Charleston County EMS.
There is no certain amount of time. You need to make yourself very marketable with education and exp which can be achieved by volunteering. We have guys coming down to to the South cause they can not get hired up North due to lack of job openings. So it may neccessiate moving out of the area to get a firefighting job.
If you are planning to go into Forestry firefighting yes

Grease involves a flammanle liquid which does not allow the application of water. And electrical fire is the same way until power is turned off.
Major problem, impedes response, creates evasive action that put more of public at risk then there needed to be. Besides it pisses me off.
