hey FordTuff1! i think if everything goes right, i will take the job and continue school on the side..i promised myself. im 21 so retiring at 42 aint half bad, but depending on how i feel then, i want to do 30 so my pension is just a tad more. What fire house are you stationed at? i have some buddies in there. yea, i think we should have a FTE picknic or something in july. where abouts are you from? im here in seaford. thanks for the advice.
