  1. Will it be staffed with a city employee?
  2. And so it begins...the domino effect...
  3. E314 was not at this fire...E309
  4. Dont know if its common, but in 1998, i had 5 WP guys in my academy class...all non residents
  5. from the official ticket....
  6. E309,E312,E310,E307,L72,L75,RES1,BATT2.... E303 was at 334 Riverdale ave when alarm came in....
  7. Any word on the results for the written portion of the FD exam given in March?
  8. Actually the first house E308 responded from as a paid department came from an old city carriage house , located just north of the current house...it is actually still standing in the parking lot of school 25..we had plans on making it the yonkers fire museum, but it was structurally too far gone...current quarters was built in 1980...our newest house....
  9. Any results on the White Plains FD exam yet?
  10. x635, this is a very interesting post... I definitely agree that the new hire who has had life experience appreciates these jobs more when they come on. A young member who has never held a job and comes on these jobs , (some starting at $80-100k) just think that it works this way at all jobs,whereas the member with the experience knows better.This is not an attack on the young guys coming on the job, but from what I have noticed from the past two classes that have come on my department , these guys hae a sense of "it's all about me", and a "sense of entitlement". And dont get me started on the texting, as youre explaining to them what to do..(I cant stand that).
  11. Years ago in yonkers, the doors at sta 4, 7, and 10 had to be widened to fit modern apparatus...just last year the decorative stone arches of sta 9 had to be removed to fit the new 72 because of the built in ladder pipe
  12. Don't laugh , the 1992 exam was like that.... and they gave us three tries to answer the question ..if the answer was b and you put it first you got a point..second a half...third a quarter point...very strange..
  13. Any new news on the results?
  14. this guy finn , isnt he the same guy who made racial remarks to another city worker?
