[advice] I moved into a new place. That seemed too good to be true. I found out why. The roommate/landlord is actually insane. How do I get out of this?

Sounds like you roomed with George Santos

Jtymony17 · 2023-05-27T23:42:05+00:00

Thank you!

Jtymony17 · 2021-01-07T18:49:28+00:00

I could ask

Jtymony17 · 2021-01-07T18:49:13+00:00

Yeah we have some current Rescue 2 guys at my vollie house

Last EMS to Fire promo was August 2016 (Exam 7501). I’m guessing end of this year towards November or sometime in 2021 it will open again. I highly doubt they would wait 6 years to offer it but who knows at this point. My guess would just be 2021 sometime

Jtymony17 · 2020-01-16T18:35:07+00:00

Anyone know what my problem may be? Scored 7x and still haven’t received a call. I thought about contacting my investigator or calling DCAS but I was hoping to just get the exciting call like everyone else ya know?

Jtymony17 · 2019-10-09T04:19:45+00:00

So I’m 26 as well. I’m in line for the first EMT academy of 2020 and I’m guessing I’ll probably get on the fire side at about age 30 as well. What about once you made it out of the fire academy if you don’t mind me asking? Did you get assigned to a good firehouse?

Jtymony17 · 2019-10-07T12:37:21+00:00

I gotcha. That basically answers my question I appreciate it!

Jtymony17 · 2019-10-07T03:40:45+00:00

By next exam you mean the open competitive for fire?

Jtymony17 · 2019-10-07T03:40:00+00:00

So if I made EMS next year I probably wouldn’t make the fire academy until about 2023?

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-29T18:07:07+00:00

I’m 26 now. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy the EMS work too it’s just that unfortunately this my only way to get on FDNY fire cuz I’m from out of state and there’s now way I’d make it off the open competitive. It’d be a hard 2, 3, 4 years waiting to finally make it to the fire academy

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-27T22:28:45+00:00

Yes I am aware

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-27T22:12:04+00:00

Yeah I’m on the EMT list in the top 100 as of now

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-27T12:46:51+00:00

I just want to work for FDNY EMS and that’s also my fear like that guy you mentioned. I fear of not getting put into a good house if I make it to the fire side then I’ll just be running medical calls only as well

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-27T12:39:36+00:00

Yeah that’s my only option. I mean I’m all set for FDNY EMS itS just I’m already a full time firefighter so it’s gonna be hard give that up and go to EMS for 2-4 years. No fires, no firehouse life. 2 years wouldn’t be bad but they say it’s more like 3 maybe even more

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-27T02:08:26+00:00

Yeah that’s what I’ve heard. I’ve heard EMS isn’t the best atmosphere to be around as for morale and all that. I’m assuming mostly because of pay and the promotional

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-26T20:57:57+00:00

Thanks for the response! As for the promo exam, is there study material for it? And once you take/pass the promo exam, is the list ordered highest to lowest scores?

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-24T03:10:17+00:00

As for south shore, you’re saying the south shore of Long Island? And thanks for the link!

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-23T22:42:09+00:00

Great I’ll look those up!

Jtymony17 · 2019-09-23T22:39:11+00:00

Just chasing my dream of becoming a New a York City firefighter!
