Rescue Me....
Anyone a fan???? I love this show as well as alot of other FX shows, but sometimes I miss it because of the hours I work and fuck tonight was the
season finale(sp?) and I didn't get to see it. Damn I'm pissed.

i've heard it's great, but i've never actually seen it. isn't it a fire rescue show? don't you get enough similar drama in your real day to day
life?! if i did what you did, i'd wanna watch like sesame street or some shit at the end of the day.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Well like I've said, yes I do see most of or basically all fo that shit during a normal day at work. I duno, a week of Rescue Me is pretty much like
a day at work for a fire-fighter here in Phila., or any big city. I see the same shit but more I guess. I like that show cause I can relate to the
attitudes of the carachters(sp?). Just a good show I think. I actually try and get my girlfriend to watch it to try and understand why I don't talk
about my day at work like she does when she comes home.

I'm a Police Officer in Philadelphia. The reason I stated that a week of Rescue Me is a day at work for me is because Fire-Rescue (that's what we
call them when we need them) is only called when we need them, inso-much as I see basically 3 times the shit they will see in a day because they only
need to come out if there is a fire, or someone is seriously hurt. However, if someone is critically injured (i.e. shot in the head) we will usually
transport in our car/wagon because it takes alot longer for rescue to get there.

How hard is it to become a police officer? I am 29 and still no degree but almost their to an Associates Degree. I need to make a living. I have a
child on the way in about 3 weeks and I have no direction. My degree is to become a teacher but it's getting harder and harder to achieve this.
Becasue of money, time and more money. Where do I begin or what is a direction I should start looking. I have taken 1 test already about a year ago
and was # 28 out of 100 people. They were only hiring 2 people.

Well for phila, I know you have to have lived here for at least a year. I know the local municipalities are pretty hard to get hired in like you said
cause they usually only hire like 2 at a time. Try something federal like septa, or postal or port authority.

Newman sucks. Most other mailmen are cool though. An old friend of mine was a mail man, he liked it. Not the greatest pay in the world but good
benefits.

i don't know how long you have to do it before you're eligible for benefits, but i figure i might like to start doing some time in my fifties. maybe
as my post retirement job. has to be in a small town so i can walk around, though. one of my old friends from highschool is a mailman in west
chester. i was so excited when i found out.

I don't really know how the postman thing works to be honest. It is a federal job from what I understand no matter where your hired at. I'm sure the
benefits start when your hired like mine did.
