General Discussion Is this just me being soft

I'm all for a good firehouse prank. Don't get me wrong. It's what makes this job great. But isn't it sort of a unwritten rule to not fuck with other people's turnouts. Couple guys on the shift before us decided it would be a great idea for them to fuck with us and saan wrap our lockers before we got there. Our gear is grouped by shifts. And of course before we even get settled in and our gear on the trucks we get a call. Then go to find our lockers saran wrapped. Dick move or not from them?

I would be surprised if they didn't get written up for this. They delayed a response.

Rules of pranks are.

  1. Never fuck with a mans sleep

  2. Never fuck with someone's meal

  3. Never fuck with someones personal items ( gear , car , wallet etc)

  4. Never fuck with someone's family
