What can I do to improve my To Do List on my profile to achieve my ultimate goal?

I choose Stone Masonry as a job for a stepping stone towards becoming a Municipal FireFighter, Because Stone Masonry is a very physically demanding job, and as you know passing fire school and maintaining your career as a FireFighter will be in need of physical strength. What are some things I'm missing and what should I do to obtain those missing pieces?

How I should make my way into a wildland firefighting career?

I'm a senior in high school in Texas and I was wondering how I should make my way into a wildland firefighting career. I have been accepted into college but I'm not sure if I want to go and I don't know if it will be necessary for wildland firefighting. I don't want to waste 20k dollars on schooling that I don't need for my job. I am just trying to figure out how to start up my career fighting forest fires. Is it on the job training or an apprenticeship program, do I need college, will I have to move out of state for training? #fire-fighter #wildfire #career #college #firefighter

Who in a Fire Station should I contact about job-shadowing opportunities?

Hello, I'm 14 years old and will be job shadowing soon. I want to do it with EMS, specifically an medical first responder. I figured since I will likely not be able to do it with EMTs that use ambulances as I don't know how old I would have to be for a ride along, I would go for firefighters instead. I do not know how high up the list I should contact with something like this, but I was thinking administrative assistant. Any guidance before I try them? #firefighter #ems #advice #jobshadowing

What does your day to day life as a firefighter consist of?

I know that firefighters put out fires, and help save lives. What kinds of things do you do when there are no fires, and what kinds of emergencies or fires do you respond to? All that I usually hear about is house fires. #career #firefighter #forest firefighter

I'm not sure which career path is be best for me, can someone help guide me in the right direction?

I'm 23 years old, ever since I was child I've wanted to be someone that helps others. I've worked at a hospital for 3 years now, searching for the career thats right for me. I started of as ancillary staff but after less then 1 and a 1/2 years I became part of The Lift, Mobility, & Compression Team. Basically we work really close with nursing staff and physical therapy, we respond to every crisis situation (code stroke, code blue, patient falls, to an in patient getting moved up to ICU), we also are firm believers in early mobility so we work with patients doing range of motion, dangling, standing, getting them on cardiac chairs or regular chairs, ambulating them, and even helping discharge max assist patients. Right now my major is nursing, but I would not want to work as a floor nurse, recovery nurse, ICU nurse, pick line nurse, or wound care nurse. I'm thinking CVOR nurse, ER nurse, trauma nurse, crisis nurse, CRNA even though there is a lot more school required, one thing that really grasps my attention outside of the medical field is becoming a fire fighter. #nursing #registered-nurses #surgery #firefighting #emergency-room #trauma-nursing #firefighter
