Wowzers!! The overtime the feds firefighters work doesn't go towards their retirement, only the base pay, and I heard it's not much money to start out at minimum wage . 😂 it's not worth it.. no thank you politicians
The question is not so much why Federal Firefighters have to work so many shifts. The real question is why the Federal Government and especially the DOD can not Keep Firefighters? The Federal Government hires many good motivated people who want to be Federal Firefighters, but compared to what cities pay, Federal Firefighters pay earn only half
I don't understand why that's not an option, DCs know the ship and it's fire fighting equipment onboard the skin of the ship better than civilian fire fighters bar none.
It’s literally gotta be a corruption component regarding a contract. The navy could easily toss the contractors and use rates that currently do the job. Let’s not pretend that during these 24 hour shifts they mention there not napping and fucking off. These contractors are in no way shape or form putting in the same hours as sailors.
That's the job I want either in the air Force or navy
Navy
I hope at least they're getting their overtime check well.

How many fucking fires is the Navy having jesus christ!
Absolutely Zero lol
Their OT must be champ
OPEN THESE UP AS BILLETS FOR DCs

Unless the you have the cert or be sent to the academy go for it. Shipboard and structure is still not the same.
Open the job back to navy sailors you’d fill those positions instantly they’d love it and it would be cheaper
Right! I'd love that, especially since DCs know how to navigate the ship, and know the fire fighting equipment onboard most cases!
