its true they are over paid most of them have two jobs and spend most of their time sitting about as for not needing their services that is no excuse we have used the doctors and hospitals and have nothing but respect for these hard wworking undervalued people |

"water squirters are over paid, sleep all night, unlike police and nurses!! thats why they are unpopulare amongst the emercency services.
"
They were not unpopular when I needed them thats for sure 
I know MOST polic and nurses no doubt do a great job, but putting out fires is not exactly a walk in the park |

very true"
I have friends in all the emergency services and you have the usual banter but say something bad about one of them and find out what answer you get of rest. My best mate is a serving royal marine and he recons you have to be mad to go into a burning building or see children that are hurt or dead from a bloke that gets shot at for a job
Fire fighters get paid alot less than MP and I know who I prefer to be standing next to. 999 crews are there when you need them most putting it on the line and always ready to help everyone should be thankful and if you think you can do better stand up and join up. |

There's some bitter people post to these threads.
Constantly putting people down and insisting they are paid too much.
A fireman?
For god's sake, grow up.
Sounds like the politics of envy. |

"Do u consider 30k over paid to risk your life and for the awful sightes and scenes they deal with?"
Plod and paramedics see the same thing, and they're norally 1st on scene too, 30K's a good wage for sleeping nights only to be woken now and again we think  |

to be fair i have respect for all emergency services, think they all do a great job and are very much under appreciated, you only have to watch fly on the wall docs to see that
i am just a little saddened that such contempt comes from within the other emergency services |

This week alone my best friend has had the joy of seeing a young motorcyclist crushed by the head when they collieded with and were then run over by a skip lorry. A house fire with a fatality and attended several grass fires set alight by bored youths. Am sure he would much rather be fitting smoke alarms which he complains about having to do weekly! |

Well my Dad was a firefighter,im a nurse and my brother works with the other emergency service
Ive never heard anyone I work with moan about then fireservice,you choose your job you know what you're getting into
The bitterness is pointless,if people don't like the fact that their job may not seem as easy as someone elses then change jobs
I would'nt say a bad word about any of the emergency services,I know what they have to deal with on a daily basis |

"Thankfully they are not dealing with fires 24 hours a day "
Very true, they are more likely to be rescuing people from crashed cars and fitting smoke alarms |

Isn't that the best thing for them to be doing sitting around? At least it means they have not to be risking their lives saving others. I hope you never need them |

definitely smacks of hypocrisy,
and more than a little jealousy.  |

I'd rather fit fire alarms all day than spend my time and effort searching a burning / burnt out building looking for un-accounted persons. They do a good job by doing very little - they less they do the better in my eyes. The burnt out buildings and homes and the hazards I encountered when doing OP Fresco made me think about their job, and I was trained to fight fires at sea in confined shut down spaces. As for the wages, there are plenty wanting to join them and very seem to leave the fire service, so wages are paid accordingly. |

What a nonsense......
When the Police and Ambulance services are present at a serious road traffic accident they are damn happy that the Fire Brigade are there to cut people out of vehicle wrecks....same goes for house fires, building collapses, terrorist incidents, train wrecks....

Then quit your own job and try joining the Brigade and doing their job....
If it's so cushy |

No doubt you would turn them away then if you ever needed them! Actually find this incredibly insulting.  |
