For those of you who did not attend the training, you must get with Kevin to view the video and go over the handout before he will issue your accountability tags. We have been getting some complaints regarding our laxness concerning tobacco in the fire house. A long time ago we told you all that smoking would be restricted to the bay area or the lounge. Soon, there was smoking in the kitchen, then in the meeting room at various meetings and just hanging out. I want to remind everyone that smoking in the meeting room may not be done at ANY time.
Lets get back to that procedure.
We have also noticed a increase in chewing tobacco. If you use chewing tobacco in the firehouse, you must use a container to spit in and dispose of properly. No spitting in drains, trash cans, or parking lot. Please follow these rules or tobacco of any kind will have to be taken off of premises. We plan to start a 36 hour Basic Firefighting class around the end of September.
