The grass isn’t always greener at another fire department

from Better Every Shift · host FireRescue1‘s Side Alpha

Chief Bashoor reminds us that we have been here before, facing spiking call volumes for challenging call types with constantly changing guidance. He also underscores that firefighters are chaos and crisis managers by nature, and we must continue to push forward, not only for our communities but also to support our fellow firefighters who are struggling through this challenging time.  This episode of the Side Alpha Podcast is sponsored by L3Harris Technologies.
