Call me skeptical.... but I think this is a politician trolling to get information to use against the FD in his community.

My reasoning?

Anyone in the fire service would know this already! :rolleyes:

1) Do you work for a private or volunteer dept? Private ? Like a club ?

2) How many hours a week are spent cleaning the truck? We clean the engine too.

3) How many hours per day are spent cleaning the firehouse? 7-8..... minutes

4) How many hours per day are spent preparing the meal? We aren't allowed to eat.

5) How many hours a day are spent on calls? We don't have fires anymore

6) How many hours/minutes a day are spent on physical fitness? Does reaching for the remote count ?

7) What is the number 1 cause of death amongst fire fighters? Useless surveys

I may be looking at this from a different angle. But, from reading the last two questions, I think he is trying to make a point of. How many hours are we spending on pyshcial fitness, when the number cause of firefighter fatalities is heart attack. And which of course a leading cause of heart attacks is heart disease, which can be reduced by regular exercise and healthy eating. I'm still not answering his questions, but I took it more as, "what are we doing to protect ourselves from our strongest killer?" At least that's my take on his questions. More theoritcal than inquiry.
