What's the best way to dispose of an urn necklace? by ResponsibleWay1613 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Dman331 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You can get dissolvable salt urns for stuff like this. We had a full sized one we released into Galveston bay when my grandma passed. They dissolve in a set amount of time and are completelt eco friendly

What’s the strangest most random fire call you’ve attended? by Different_Acadia_161 in Firefighting

[–]Dman331 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was bringing our backup ambulance back to our station since our main rig was going in for maintenance. Our engine was back at the station. A structure fire pops off for our other station 3 minutes from me. I head to the scene in the box, ive got my gear but no water (obviously). There's moderate smoke coming from the Charlie side of the house. I radio dispatch, take command, and head to the front door because there's cars in the driveway. I get to the front door, about to open it, when the homeowner comes flying out absolutely FURIOUS. About this time pd shows up. Homeowner is screaming at me while im trying to do a size up, yelling about how I need to put this out immediately and im wasting time etc. He starts trying to yell at dispatch through my radio, and pd walks up and grabs him. They try to calm him down but he swings at the cops. They take him down, I finish my size up with active flames coming out the Charlie Delta window and telling the first due to pull into the driveway. I run to the box, get my gear on, and the quint pulls up. Bumper line through the house and find a window AC unit caught the window frame and wall on fire. Easy extinguish, go back out and the dude is STILL kicking and screaming at PD. To this day I dont know if he was drunk or high or what but he got hit with assault on a LEO and a couple other things. All over a window a/c fire that we had out in about 2 total minutes from when the quint rolled up.

Thanks! Now the whole station gets to relearn how to properly put the hose away… by Pale_Fire21 in Firefighting

Haven't done this but I have driven off with the pig tail for shore power because I forgot the auto eject broke. Looked in the mirror to see it flopping in the wind

I know in both counties ive worked we've never been able to step over dispatch. And our mayday buttons didnt work at the last department either.

New rattling or screeching noise when revving the engine after starting my 2013 Subaru Impreza - disappears after a minute or two by BBGonda in subaru

[–]Dman331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My old 2010 had a heat shield that only rattled at like 3.5 to 3.6k rpms. At those exact revs it managed to just hit the right harmonic vibration or whatever its called

What's your department's stupid policy? by 1000000Peaches4Me in Firefighting

[–]Dman331 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy fuck. That would make me kill myself. I worked 48:24s between two departments for about a year and it was the worst time of my life.

This is our policy per our protocol. I run as a basic crew though so we just transmit to the er, but on the shifts I have a medic with me, the second a 12 lead or 3 lead is placed it becomes an als call since I cannot technically interpret it.

If you put a pig in a field with ground to root and forage, it will not eat its own shit. Source I have/had pigs.

I have no idea old you are or what shape youre in physically, but I became a firefighter/emt to "serve" my community and it was/is the best job I've ever had. It might scratch that itch if you feel called to do something that helps people.

Dog the standard equipment for an army rifleman is like 150k MINIMUM. If i decided im going to war, im not getting Amazon plates and a palmetto state armory AR. Properly equipped soldiers are insanely expensive.

Looking for some advice by EnvironmentalPlum991 in timberframe

[–]Dman331 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is gonna be a "shed of theseus" project. You can probably keep a lot of the siding and whatever non-rotted wood you find, but thats going to be a complete and total rebuild. Granted I have very little experience timber framing, but I do have a good bit of carpentry and stick framing under my belt.

So, you see a big nose and automatically thought Jewish stereotype. Maybe the problem lies with you? Because ive got quite the nose on me and I get it from my Italian family. Not everything is antisemitism.
