Newsdroid sez: "Are you as emotionally ready as you are trained for this"

Obviously not. These are not Zen firefighters, they're firefighters.
They're not psychopath firefighters. They're firefighters. They can
control some fears, under extreme pressure,
but that does not imply complete self control, when they're falling off
to sleep.

Yeah, they can extricate, triage, splint, extinguish, exhibit super human
care, decisions, endurance, and strength, but they cannot be emotionally ready.

Tequila and tears. Hugs for them. Talk about it.

Life will go on. Love the ones you're with.








I want to know how this happened. Like that bridge collapse in the midwest last year, I thought we had solved this stuff.
