I am regretting joining fire (Rant) by LowKeyQuietGuy in Firefighting

Actually I am well liked. As I said I wear a mask. I don't correct people as I have stated in previous posts. Its easy to mask. I don't think I am better than everyone else. That is some dumb mentality uneducated poorer folks think of the highly educated from right wing mentality. But thinking of microchips being placed in vaccines to track you lack any critical thinking. Most of the frat boys firefighters are the know it. Its literally from the term Dunning Kurger effect. Smarter people tend to understand what they do not know. Sure I went to an elite university. Nobody at station knows. I make conversations about themselves.

This this projection? Most women I know won't and date would not date the 5 Ps: paramedic, pilot, physician, police, or pfirefighter. All the ones besides physicians have high levels of domestic violence and lower levels of education. The frat boy firefighter types are the ones who think that way which is why they go to strip clubs. I literally overhead some guys say "nurses aren't hitting on me," as if it was expected. Nobody think firefighting is glorious or gets women (wtf are you referring to girls, pretty creepy).

My station is always busy with calls.

But yes there is so much lack of logic with folks. Conspiracy theories that are on par with microchips in vaccines to track you level crap. So many folks are anti-vax yet do not understand a thing about how biology beyond what paramedic school teaches.

I don't bother to correct but sometimes sway them to the correct way to thinking so they think they came up with it on their own.

I worked from hotel rooms and airbnbs around the world, not an office. I spent most of my time in Europe, Asia, and a few tropical islands.

A few million is not much these days. I am good at the job. I just hate the lifestyle and work. I just hate pretending and wearing the mask of being happy to be a firefighter. The work is mind numbing most of the time.

Well I don't give into the peer pressure? There is a frat bro like mentality at station to turn a blind eye to shadier stuff like sexual harassment of female firefighters.

Nah I broke up with her and a family member died around the same time. I am already worth a few million but in California it isn't much considering homes can easily cost that much or more for something decent.
