Do you think burning down things and rioting is helping Gorge Floyd? Is it going to bring him back to life? Will it save people in the future? And what did Wendy’s, Target and mom and pop shops that are already suffering from the pandemic?

All lives matters and allof the rioting has been taken over by other parties with no concern of the victims that fits there narrative.

Have you ever took valuables out of a burning building before? I would assume objects isn’t a top priority even if it’s expensive or important but have you ever done it?

Asked by Fanny about 5 years ago

Yes, during overhaul or if we have time to get things out but it depends on staffing. I currently operate a 1 man Engine and I cover approx 100 sq miles by myself with back up 20 miles away. So with that said my time is very limited to do alot of things, lol.
