LOL what an ass hahaha

Firefighters dont make that much money right? Avg 44k/yr, and it isn't easy to get into either?


uhh in canada avg salary sits at like 65 and their OT hours make it common to hit 100k

Here a firefighter 4th class makes $58k their first year. Firefighter 1st class makes about 90k. Takes 4-5 years to go from 4th class to 1st class. And yeah, it's pretty hard to get in to for sure. It's definitely not for everyone.

Captains make 17% higher wage than a 1st class, District chief makes 12% more than captain and platoon chief makes 7% more than district. That's what I was told by a retired platoon chief who also stood in as deputy chief for a bit.
