My first sentence is aimed to you directly, that’s why I quoted you. The rest of my response is to wood who I posted directly under.

All donation money should be going towards state house reps in the closest districts IMO

It’s made people more incredibly annoying. During the Super Bowl some dickhead next to me kept going about his bet he had and the guy just did understand that’s how you guarantee you lose and just doesn’t understand etiquette. So of course he lost.

The man is literally saying out loud what most people think will happen before the election. He didn’t even put a number on it, just said down.
I bet he’s got some Cherry Luden cough drops in his pocket.
I bet he’s gonna find a quarter behind some young kids ear.
I bet he might have an ice cream cone sometime this summer.

Lol I’m doing plenty fine and Just sharing my experience with academy.
These are what members of the actual Austin fire department told us in the first 8 weeks of med classes leading up to the NREMT exam and at least 2 months after when going through confined spaces, ladders, water rescue etc before I left. 80% is med calls.
Making a broad brush stroke about all fire departments didn’t happened here but appreciate you calling me idiotic. If Billy goat or Herbie want to chirp in from the sidelines and start one, they can feel free.
If the classes are better run now in Austin I’d be happy to hear. Going in every day at 5am just to hear some instructor tell you how to bone the Austin taxpayer for overtime money and showing his actual check did happen and was hilarious for the wrong reasons.

Acting astonished by the behavior is weird when AFD probably fires more of their own FFs than any other department in the state, based on the gripes from my class I still talk to

Jesus Christ guys I already said I was in Class 126 and left. If you want the world to believe y’all are chasing down fires all day, I’ll call you out on that cause you aren’t and it’s straight from the people who come into teach the cadets. Whether it’s people in their two year operations stint that stop by, our own TLs, or whatever FF wanting overtime pay to teach I couldn’t tell you their names if you want specifics. Not here to dox individuals but Asian Steven who only knew how to communicate with Ricky Bobby jokes was one, some late 30s brunette lesbian was another. The dt lieutenant had like 4-5 kids which is why he was always on OT. The grumpy ass captain is below
Here’s the captain: https://www.kxan.com/news/suspended-afd-captain-posted-political-comments-on-facebook/amp/
The lieutenant worked in the same dt house this one worked at: https://www.statesman.com/story/news/2022/05/19/austin-settles-lawsuit-firefighter-who-filmed-undressing/9842009002/

No need to encourage an ugly primary. I don’t think Padilla has the statewide name recognition, simple as that.

Ah, yeah. Gotcha. And those dang paramedics hardly ever beat us in. There are just more of us and we're usually closer. I didn't do a whole lotta OT work. At shift's end, I'd usually seen enough and was ready to go home or do something fun. It's a helluva lot better than a real job though in most ways, and now my 20 yo is in the process of tryna get in with AFD. So we got that goin' for us. Which is nice.
There's some sitting around, mostly after like 6:30 pm, but not as much as you'd probably think, and less and less with every passing day. They train pretty much every shift, and PT a lot, and do a lot of Medical and Fire/Rescue CE of all sorts, and inspections, Captain's Schools, Pre-Fire planning, hydrant maintenance that the Water dept used to do, the station's yard maintenance, keep all the equipment clean and in good working order, clean the station, the trucks, and their PPE, public education, and a whole lotta other shit. But in the end it's not so much about how much they do, but more about what they're willing to do.
Not sure how to read you here. Were/are you in the AFD Training Academy or something? 60% assholes or 40%? Just trying to keep track on my scorecard here at home.
Yea 60% of the people around the academy are assholes and the “Look I’m a firefighter” type. I could probably revise it to 70% but I’ll give them benefit of the doubt.
Between DT station Lt’s posting overtime paystubs cause they think 100k is some VIP club, Captains telling us about 10k vacations they had to take for calling Hillary Clinton a cunt on FB, too most of the white shirts saying they can’t remember the last fire they showed up to, it was eye opening for sure. Even just the exaggeration of calls a day.
Id tell your 20 y/o if he can make it past the first hour without going to the hospital due to collapsing, then he’ll have a nice job. AFD is/was notorious about that for awhile, and they can’t attract any laterals for that reason as well.

No she won’t

Just run against Padilla

When Trump loses a second time, the MAGA movement, just like their memories of high school, will be over and their success exaggerated.
Also, I'd call point of order on the smoked meats since Prasek's is in Hillje before El Campo. -

Wont blame Schiff for getting the matchup he wants, too early to tell how that affects the balance of the US House when I'm pretty sure California mails their shit to everybody

There are assholes everywhere, but generally firefighters are regarded as pretty high quality people. They also, according to the Washington Post six days ago, have the most physically demanding jobs in the country.
I’ve only noticed your existence by the sheer volume of terrible viewpoints you express on this site. So your comment is no surprise and says way more about you than it does the firefighter community.
ill go 40/60 with AFD

Clean up car wrecks, kitchen stove fire, andthen hope Paramedics beat you to scene. Thats what every LT and Capt would come in to tell you. This was in Class 125 and 126

I think part of the problem is no one else wants to do it (take on the role, I mean-I’m sure you can find plenty who’d happily fire him).
I hate to bash Beto but there’s a case to be made that he’d have been a far more dangerous AG candidate than governor. Until you can mount some kind of state wide victory you’re going to be working against the leftover Ann Richards brigade and whose corpses run the state party.
That said, if Lina Hidalgo wants to take that next step and doesn’t use it for something Federal she could do it.
What is the expectation of Gilbert Hinojosa? The whipping boy status needs to be put out there. Given no credit for '18 from the board, YUGE tangible increases in '16 and '20 participation. '12 was dismal after 6 months on the job, '14 was not good for abortion barbie label. '22 was a push.

Will be interesting to see how many one issue voters arise out of this for public education. My uncle is a huge MAGA guy, his mind didn't move at all on the gun issue after Sutherland Springs when members of his own extended family were involved, but he has been a band directorfor 30+ year all over NW Harris Co but he's smart enough to know the first thing that gets cut in public education is the arts.
@slorch from your posts I always figured you were a big advocate for public education (apologies if I'm misremembering). Would the results of yesterday give you pause to vote for a R state house member that is pro voucher or state senator? Also, anyone who jumps on him for the answer is a loser and not invited to my birthday party -
My prediction is right and I’ll hold the parade later. First sizable elections for Trump on the ballot after Jan 6th and it’s a disaster.
