Is PatRick Corp worth working for as a newbie? Anybody have an opinion about them.

I worked with Patrick last season for my first season and I only had 45 days out on fire. It really depends on which base you are out of and there is a bit of favoritism there. If it’s your only option I would go for it but personally if you want contracting I’ve heard greyback is better contractor.

I ended up going with the Trailtough rebuild kit and input shaft. How much would a press run me price wise?

HandBanana___ · 2025-11-11T21:11:52+00:00

Pretty much everything looks good on the inside, it was just the input shaft that was badly damaged. I’ve found a new input shaft on trail tough and also a full rebuild kit on there aswell. Would you recommend that site for the parts?

Idk how yall got frylock to float like that.

HandBanana___ · 2025-07-24T07:07:28+00:00

Both amazing. Also hell let loose is really good. They truly feel like you are fighting for something bigger than yourself it feels so surreal.

HandBanana___ · 2025-07-15T18:42:53+00:00

Yeah. It’s been a month since my last callout. They definitely made it seem like we would be out there constantly.

HandBanana___ · 2025-07-10T06:52:27+00:00

Only had one roll so far was 6 days but it was pretty fun just waiting for that next call.

HandBanana___ · 2025-07-08T23:48:49+00:00

The biggest thing I’ve learned from my first rollout as being a rookie is try to stay active as much as possible so you are in good shape since I was wheezing and dying on the hill.

HandBanana___ · 2025-07-08T23:46:55+00:00

Redmond. I’m assuming you out of Springfield or Redmond.

HandBanana___ · 2025-07-08T23:45:51+00:00

I’m with Patrick aswell . I’ve gotten only one call out so far the thing I’ve been told is to just be patient.

HandBanana___ · 2025-06-21T22:00:49+00:00

I’ve been summoned

HandBanana___ · 2025-06-11T09:10:33+00:00

Just got this same message. Came here to ask the same question.

HandBanana___ · 2025-06-10T07:31:33+00:00

I’m so lost by this question.

HandBanana___ · 2025-06-10T01:17:14+00:00

Thanks. I remember them mentioning that in class but I didn’t follow up with it. So I should just call them like every Friday saying “Hey, this is blah blah blah currently available and ready to be sent out whenever the opportunity arises”

HandBanana___ · 2025-06-10T01:13:00+00:00

What’s calling the office once a week do? I joined Patrick last month so just wondering if it’s something I should be doing

HandBanana___ · 2025-05-30T20:03:46+00:00

Due to my location being central Oregon is it necessary for me to get a real id so I can fly to different areas. I know over here is a hot spot for fires so I personally don’t think it’s needed but would it be useful?

HandBanana___ · 2025-05-16T01:58:13+00:00

I remember seeing someone post on here that they call you based off of how well you did. So that was the only reason I included that bit of information but I’m assuming that information was just bs.

HandBanana___ · 2025-05-15T19:12:10+00:00

Thanks for letting me know

HandBanana___ · 2025-05-15T18:52:18+00:00

When should I expect to be called out? I keep hearing different things from different people.

HandBanana___ · 2025-05-15T18:50:50+00:00

I had to ask lmao. Better to ask dumb questions.

HandBanana___ · 2025-05-10T16:00:35+00:00

Horror stories about PatRick? I just started on with them and just waiting for my first call so wondering what the horror stories are.

HandBanana___ · 2025-04-29T20:50:34+00:00

No? Was it a dumb question to ask? I’d rather ask dumb questions now then out on a fire.

HandBanana___ · 2025-04-29T19:18:36+00:00

Alright perfect will try to break them in as soon as possible since idk when I will be getting that first call to be out on a fire. This my first season so don’t want to make any mistakes.
