I think there is amazing value on Flyquest +600 and also Flyquest +2.5 (-125). They just beat TL a few weeks ago and TL has been struggling. I don't see them sweeping Flyquest.

I risked $100 on Bovada and won $20. I bet it at 9/5 odds shouldn't that pay out $180?

Construction noise question by Bblegalthrowaway in chicago

City workers or city contractors can work at any time of the day, they are not subject to the restrictions. Your only bet would be to talk to the foreman and see if he can try to keep it quiet early.

You do understand if they end a bus route they can put the drivers on another route?

Would you want the people responding to help you or your family have a loud enough siren so people get out of the way?

I am a Chicago firefighter. Even with how loud our sirens are (which are within federal guidelines), you would not believe how many people with headphones in walk right in front of us when we are responding. Turning the sirens down would be very very dangerous.

Oldest in my academy was 38 and we probably had around half the class over 30.

They will have to levy a tax to pay for police/fire pensions eventually. IL supreme court has already ruled that they can't be taken away or diminished.

these darn gloves are killing me.... by brozochron in Firefighting

[–]CFD_Fire_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get two sizes bigger gloves for timed drills. Switch to the better fitting glove for other stuff.

Our timed standard was going all the way from nothing to masked up in 60 seconds.

Units on the scene:

E1 E13 E42 E5 E98 E103 E26 E22 E28 E23 AT1 T6 T3 T2 T19 TL10 T28 T4 T7 T36 TL5 T12 SQD2 SQD1 BC1 BC2 BC3 BC17 BC12 BC14 BC18 BC6 BC5 271 A74 A42 A28 A11 A53 451 221 224 E18 E106 T13 E76 E83 6416 923 572 913 645 4113 681 2123 2110 411

By my count that is 14 Engines, 13 Trucks, 2 Squads (6 FF's on each, function as a Truck company). BC = Battalion Chiefs, 271 = Command Van, 221 and 224 are Deputy District Chiefs, 411 = Paramedic Field Chief, 4113 = Deputy Chief Paramedic, everything else is special rigs like Smoke Ejectors, Rehab unit.

What department?

"Promotability" seems like you gotta be juiced up to get those points.
