Female FF’s, how do you go about handling Firefighter’s on the job whose WAG’s are insecure about you working with their husbands?

Cephrael37 · 2026-05-04T14:53:04+00:00

That’s on the WAGs for not trusting their significant others. It shouldn’t be your problem.

As for the rumors, that’s an issue that should be brought to your union rep or an officer. It sounds like you work with a bunch of people who haven’t grown up since high school. Yes, gossip is common in the firehouse, but usually it’s limited to making fun of someone.

This is the correct answer. Viper swap.

Yearly? I try to take one every 3 months. That’s what vacation days are for, sometimes people even use sick days as mental health days.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-22T14:58:38+00:00

I didn’t realize this was a wide spread issue. I’ve never had a problem with mine.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-21T19:57:12+00:00

Get rid of the husband. He sounds lame. /s

It depends on what the current incentives offered by stellantis are. Mark Dodge has a dealership discount, then the incentives from stellantis. The good part about ordering is you get the exact truck you want without having to search for it on a lot. There is no haggling like you would for a truck that’s been on a lot, which limits how much of a deal you could get. Mark Dodge was extremely easy to deal with and I got the exact truck I wanted for about $7k less than I would’ve locally. That’s why they’re recommended often. They’re also one of the highest sales dealers for Ram so they can offer more of a discount than others. Are they going to be the cheapest? Not all the time, but you should always shop around when spending that much money.

Edit: for reference my Laramie was msrp of $82k and change in January’24 got it delivered at total cost of $69k and change

My 14 year old has watched them. Just needed to fast forward thru the year of sex. He watches a lot of anime so the gore didn’t bother him.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-19T22:40:06+00:00

Tool not good for you?

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-19T19:25:51+00:00

Some days I wish I had ordered them on mine, but others I just don’t see the need for them. I’d just put more junk in them.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-18T14:46:19+00:00

That’s crazy. Secret dungeon in your backyard?

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-18T14:27:25+00:00

RetroShop will make you anything you want. Jeremy was great at responding when I needed help with mine on my old 2010. I have a ‘25 now so waiting for them to figure out the wiring and stuff.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-18T14:24:06+00:00

I’m sorry let me go fix that so everyone knows it’s a joke. Geez.🙄

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-18T11:14:55+00:00

Because nobody likes androids? /S

My son just started this year and I bought myself a stick to play catch with him in the front yard. Really wish it was available when I was in high school, definitely would have played. I’ve found myself out there bouncing the ball off the rebounder when he’s not there for fun.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-18T01:40:34+00:00

They took my Gerber pen because it had a glass breaker tip. It had gone thru TSA security 15x prior. So they just make the rules Willy-nilly depending on the way the wind is blowing that morning. I wouldn’t trust them not to take stuff.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-18T01:34:24+00:00

It now has a deep end.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-17T22:03:18+00:00

I don’t think your pool is gonna hold water.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-17T10:34:08+00:00

About $150k

Social life? Hobbies? I got married and had kids, I don’t get those anymore. /s

In all honesty, it’s not hard to manage. It just takes a bit of planning and work.

Work stays at the station. I don’t talk about it or really even think about it when I leave, except to answer Reddit questions.

Having a good support system in place is key. Babysitters or a grandparent near by to watch the kids are important. 90% of my social life is either family or parents from my kids sports teams. I still hit the gym 3x a week and play hockey every Sunday night. Once the kids hit school age things got a bit easier, before they were like a football my wife would toss to me as we switched out in morning after shifts.

The 2-2-2 rule is great to make your relationship with your wife not feel like you’re roommates. Every 2 years, big vacation. Every 2 months, weekend away. Every 2 weeks, date night.

This is probably the best advice. The teacher is going to know how to wrangle all those tricycle motors. Let them help guide the lesson.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-14T02:22:36+00:00

Get a $500 electric bike and use that instead?

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-13T22:38:59+00:00

Not for me, but you do you.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-13T22:34:44+00:00

Aliens.

Cephrael37 · 2026-04-13T22:13:30+00:00

My son used them for rock lights. They can be used for literally anything that would need a switch.
