Participant[quote=sdrealtor]Thats right I was in NJ. How was I to know that career included lifetime vacation rights in SoCal.[/quote]
Find a NJ city (or any city along the east coast) with a population as large as SD, LA, etc., and let’s compare salaries, shall we?

ParticipantAt a cursory glance, it looks like the east coast is suffering from the same thing as those on the west coast. Guess it’s not just the “greedy union thugs” on the west coast who are causing our country’s economic ills?

Again, these positions are NOT the same as professional firefighters/paramedics. They don’t have anywhere near the same education/training, experience, professionalism, etc. These are training programs for people who want to become professional firefighters/paramedics.
[/quote]Are you sure? This site for Pasadena’s fire department makes it sound like the volunteers provide all of the fire and related services to the City of Pasadena. I would think that a wealthy city like Pasadena would pay their fire department if they felt there was some quality discrepancy between the volunteers and the “professionals.” What am I missing here?
[Edit – this is Pasadena, Texas! Not Pasadena, California… whoops! So skip to the final paragraph below…]

In the larger scheme of things, are all of the 73% of volunteer fire fighters in the U.S. simply being trained to be paid fire fighters? I doubt that’s the case, but I could be wrong.
