My friends Brother was in that company. It was a mattress factory that went up in flames. Said story and those guys risk their lives for not much pay at all.

I feel for all FF as my sister in law is one.

I dont' think they are appreciated enough. Sure they were after 9/11 but things are back to where they were now.

They are the ones running into a building as people are running out. It has been proven their life expectancy is less and cancer risk substantially higher due to shit they breathe in yet they don't think twice about getting up and doing it everyday.

we love it though, most guys LOVE getting up to go to work in the mourning


i'd do the job for free if i had too
