This will probably be pretty much of a “do-nothing” day for many of us. That’s my intention, anyway. Easing off of a 3-day weekend requires careful planning, cautious movements, and special consideration of the placement of the vital snacks and beverages that will be needed to float through this day of decompression.
I have a brief follow-up to our discussion the other day (HERE) about job-hunting in today’s tough employment market. We were talking about not being discouraged by all the news you hear about FF layoffs from ill-managed cities because there are even more places that are hiring, but you have to get out and find them. One of these is the Plano, Texas, Fire Department that recently went public with a plea for more people who are qualified to please apply for their openings:
Another good resource can be found at VAFireNews.com’s special job-openings page where publisher Rhett Fleitz does a good job of keeping up with which departments in the state of Virginia are hiring. He’s taken what was an individual page in the blog and spun it off into a separate website, Virginia Fire & EMS Jobs HERE. If you know of any other similar websites that track fire and/or EMS job openings, please pass them along and we’ll post them.
Now it’s time to get this equipment checked out before we kick back into recovery mode. I’ll get the coffee started and then dig out a Sunday photo art snap.
