I am no professional but....
It was about 6:00 am and I get a frantic all from my friend. He is yelling about his plants. I tell him to calm down and slowly tell me whats up. He says "my trailer is on fire and I amis trying to save the plants! Get over here and help me." I say "dude just call the fire department"
"I cant you know what kind of plants they are, just get over here it is not that bad"
So we argue a little and he swears he will not call the fire department. As he only lives like 4 blocks away, I jumped on my bike and booked over. It was that bad! I throw open the trailer door to find my buddy passed out from smoke inhalation, pick him up and drag him outside. I turn the hose on and spray it down as I use my free hand to call the fire department. To my amazement the hose was winning the fight. Knocked the flames down enough to grab the plants and threw them into the neighbors yard. My friend comes too as the fire department arrives. They gave him some O2 and he seemed fine after that. They put out the smoldering trailer and start ripping it apart looking for any hot spots. I decide I did not want to stick around in case the cops look over the fence. I slink away when no one is looking. The end.

You on calopps.org Hide? I get emails frequently for jobs locally. Firehire is ok as well, took their test a few times over the years. A few opportunities came from that.
