Firefighting is an important job to keep people safe and help keep
fires from damaging too much proper ty. I t is a tough job, but if you like to
help people, i t could be the job for you! Firefighters have to take physical
tests to make sure their bodies are strong enough to do al l of the work
required. They have to be able to carry heavy objects, go up many flights of
stairs, and work for a
long time. Firefighters al so go through frequent training.
They need to be aware of the latest techniques in fighting fires, and
keeping themselves and others safe. Not only do they train themselves, but
they also talk to other people about fi re safety. Some schools have the fire
fighters come in every year to teach kids about how to stay safe around fire.
One of the most important parts of being a fire fighter is working as a team.
Fire fighters
have to work together to stop fires, even down to
holding the hose together!
Some fire fighters stay at the f ire station for an entire day,
including overnight. When there is not a fi re
going on, firefighters make sure al l of their equipment is
clean and in working order. After dinner, they are able to use their free time
to relax. Firefighting is stressful, though. Fire fighters never know when a fi
re or other emergency is going to happen, so they have to be ready at all
times.
This means that even if they just sat down to eat dinner when the
fire al arm goes off, they can’ t fin is h eating. They have to leave all of their
food where i t is and go to help right away. Even in the middle of the night,
firefighters have to be able to wake up quickly to get
to the emergency.
Firefighters wear special equipment to keep them safe. They wear
