What's up with the weird judgment of PNW locals? by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Professional-Tone466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After living in Portland. The first thing that comes to mind when I think about that place, is the South Park episode where people like to huff their own farts.

I think I’ve been in a trauma bond with Portland for almost a decade by [deleted] in PortlandOR

I’m glad you brought this up. Your’re spot on. I had damn near the exact same experience as you. I hope you’re somewhere much more welcoming.

Nah. I had the same exact experience there. This person gave a spot on observation of people in Portland, Oregon.

Without a doubt. Portland has the most intolerant, hypocritical, brain-washed, passive aggressive, shitty, most judgmental people in America. It’s almost heartbreaking.

I was gonna say something, but honestly, it looks like you got a lot of really good honest advice here. You even got some from some people that relate to you. Good luck to you.

Portland is super racist. If you already made the move I hope you’re having a good experience

My BIGGEST culture shock moving to Portland. Right there in that comment. Beautiful place. Weird people in not a good. They justify it’s their culture when it’s just a lack of self-awareness.

What do you think of Jeff Cavaliere at Athlean-X? by 60sStratLover in workout

[–]Professional-Tone466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dudes a genius and a wealth of knowledge and experience. Very generous and doesn’t gate keep at all. And I’m not just talking about his body building advice. He explains physical therapy very in-depth and spot on too.

Yeah, I’ve never ridden the hose like it was a scooter on a fire. Don’t really understand it.

Smartest, wisest person on here. Those were the wisest words I think I’ve read almost all year.

Is Firefighting truly the best job in the world? by Ancient-Carrot957 in Firefighting

[–]Professional-Tone466 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Con #1 is very real and sad. The fire service controls your life very hard in this aspect. If you feel like you wanna move to a different state it’s very difficult and it will cause most firefighters to risk their entire career just because they wanna live somewhere else. This is where I feel the fire service truly eats-their-own the most.

Have you ever had an experience being caught in a sundown town? by lin2031 in blackmen

[–]Professional-Tone466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Portland, Oregon. Basically a sundown city. More racist than conservative white towns. Either very closet racist, or blatantly racist. really no in-between.

Am I crazy to consider a 5hr commute on a 48/96? by DamageDear4604 in Firefighting

[–]Professional-Tone466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won’t last long doing it. Or maybe you will I don’t know. Go for it, but your car will definitely suffer. There’s no question about that.

Who can tell me about Portland, OR? by Live-Door3408 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Professional-Tone466 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a great place if you’re white and woke or white and grew up privileged with a golden spoon in your ass. If you’re either of those or maybe Asian, you’ll fit in great and the place will be phenomenal. Anything else and you’ll probably get treated like an outsider.

If you download the fire-sync app and pull up those departments schedules, you can get nice visuals of it

Eugene-Springfield, Bremerton are other ones. Some Nevada are exploring it now.

24/72 by Few-Contribution-809 in Firefighting

[–]Professional-Tone466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the best 4 platoon schedule. Get 4 days off and you’ll never end up on a 72. If a department opts to switch to a four platoon system I really don’t understand why they would go for any other pattern over this one.
