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?

We were mad gagging and wanting revenge till we finally figured out it was a half dissolved giant chocolate Easter bunny …..

Why are you spam promoting your book in here?

Because it fits the subject and is a great book for new firefighters and any firefighters. Could really help a new firefighter on how things could be in a firehouse.
Wish I had read a book like this before I started.
