Putting out the fire: a talk with firefighter Reuben Otto

An eye-opening talk with Reuben Otto, firefighter and member of the NZ Professional Firefighters Union (NZPFU) about the challenges of firefighting. Not just the heat and cancer risk, but the lack of a #FENZ employment contract for 571 days and counting, a broken funding model, public attacks by politicians, understaffing, and debilitated fire trucks. Despite it all he maintains a positive outlook and an undiminished dedication to the job that will inspire you. Share with your friends!
