- Annoyed in Nashville. Sorry we here on Fido can not do things quite as
-
- well as those on Internet.
- There are differences in the two systems, and seems to me we should be
- able to meet halfway, I personally would like to see a little less of
- the Pi**ing and M***ing that the internet users seem to be so fond of.
- Would be a shame to have a dead echo, just because no one wanted to post
- on
- a echo where everyone gave up due to various problems.
- Now, could we get to Firefighting?
- Here in Nashville, a move is about to take the Arson Investigation
- responsibility away from the Fire Marshalls office. The Mayor, has
- decided
- that it would be better served by being part of the Police dept. No
- mention
- has been made as to whether or not the present investigative staff would
- be
- transfered to the PD, but past behaviour has shown that the staff would
-
- probably be reassigned within the fire department.
- Also at the same time, the Mayors Idiots, I mean staff has said that
- they
- want to change the requirement for Chief, deleting the requirement that
- the
- chief ever had front line firefighting experience, and requiring
- college.
-
- Any Comments?
