Week One Complete!

Well hello my friends!!   Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you all but I have been very busy making 100%'s on my tests!  :)  In our first week we have now taken two written tests and one practical skills test.  These were on CPR and the AED so if you are to fall out while we are out and about, I can save you! 

In our first week we were also introduced to JOSET!  This is Captain Veal's way of getting us ready for the "floor" or on shifts when we graduate from Recruit School.  He is taking it easy on us now but soon I'm sure it with take us to the floor (literally) before we get to the "floor".  The circuit consist of climbing the tower, hose pulls, ladder climbs, ladder carries and so on.  We start running it in our fire gear this week!  



We also had three classmates quit this week!  Seriously, in the first week three people quit.  Craziness!  We have another test Tuesday and I am hoping that everyone makes it through that one!  I have my doubts but I do hope no one goes cause I am becoming quite fond of my new family.  Even some of the ones that drove me bonkers at Orientation and even the first day of class are starting to come around  :)
