Where have I been?!...

That's a great question. Well I have been very busy indeed. Where do I start...?

Well I had an interview with a department about an hour and a half of where I live. I received a 96% on my oral interview (which was awesome by the way), but I only score an 79% on the written exam... which when added together didn't give me high enough standing to get one of the initial positions available but it did put me number 22 on the hiring list for the next 2 years.

What did I get out of this? Well I got the experience of yet another interview process, which showed me that I am getting better at them (98%!!). Plus I got on a hiring list. In my opinion it was a success.

But that was a few months ago, where have you been lately? Well, I also got on as an intern for a department near me as well. I haven't started yet but I will be working my first shift on the 9th or next month. I already have all my gear and am waiting for the patches to get sown on my dress shirt and I will be ready to get started. I am so excited.

Its been 6 months since the academy, that I have done any fire related training, so it will be good to get back into it again finally.

I will hopefully keep posting again, and will keep you all updated on the new happenings.
