    Yeah I mean you could do something interesting one day and then just watch some place for a few hours after a fire on another. We have a turnover rate of like 2-5 people per year, but that includes people who are too old since there is a maximum age or people move and join the chapter at their new place.

    And trainable, I mean we need people who guide traffic or something else that is not physically taxing so there is something to do for everyone.

    And at least here the paid firefighters are usually the first responders since they are on alert 24/7, volunteers usually need up to 15 minutes (our record is 2 Minutes) to respond. So the professionals go im first and then get backed up by the volunteers. Or if it is just something small the professionals will not respond at all and let us handle it.
