DAILY ROUTINES AND INTERESTS OUTSIDE OF WORK
I’m working on building a front porch extension for an old neighbour of mine. I work locally most of the time which means I can be available to be on-call.
In the evening I have band practice at the fire station, which is convenient if we do get called out on a job!
We can be called out to emergencies at any time (when we are available) and are alerted to emergency calls by a pager.
My pager goes off whilst I’m laying bricks, I chuck my tools in my van and head to the station.
The job is a chimney fire just up the road. We’re finished at the job pretty quickly and head back to station.
Most Tuesday evenings I try to get out mountain biking with my son.
Wednesday night is drill night.
This can be basic training such as putting up ladders or running hose or it could be more technical, such as line rescue.
I’m on-call while at work in the day but often go to an indoor BMX park in Leeds with my son on a Thursday evening.
I spend most of my Fridays working on my house and going out walking with my two dogs.
Family day.
There’s plenty of flexibility in my role to allow me to spend time with my family.
More bikes!
My son and I are real petrol heads and most weekends we love to go out and ride motorcycle trails.
