FallinWoman 1 #1 March 23, 2006 For those of you who have been following Skymedic's saga....he got a firefighting job today. Yay! He was a firefighter in Chicago, then he moved to St. Louis to be with me. In St. Louis County you have to have the County fire academy to get a job...silly but true. He got into the academy and completed it last summer. Since then he has been applying for firefighting jobs. Today he was offered and accepted a job with a local town. He is thrilled, as am I. He finally is going to get to do what he loves! (FYI...he has had a job as a paramedic since he moved down here, just not fighting fire, which is what he loves to do!) ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!

skymedic 0 #6 March 23, 2006 QuoteWhat a blessing to be able to do something you truly love for a living. Not only do I get to do what I love...but I get a 100% raise over what I make right now!!! first shift is the 8th. I'm psyched. Cool thing is I havn't even started and I get seniority over someone. as they hired someone behind me. Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman....
