I posted this in the newbie section and was directed here. I'm from Woodstock IL, near the IL/WI border.
Very green to all of this. I currently work as a cable installer (go figure) and have been thinking about a career change, like many others have always wanted to be either a firefighter or policeman....currently leaning more so towards a firefighter. Just have a strong passion to help others, and would do anything to help in any situation. Just kind of doing some research on firefighting, I make a pretty decent living just would like some info on where to get started, like should I try being a volunteer firefighter first or try taking some college classes???
Any info anyone has would be great, I have nothing but respect for anyone who is/was/trying to be a firefighter.
