(of course the situation there is temporary housing which visitors will make worse not better)

Fx Co sending "emergency staff" to Corpus Christi ... for vacation or real emergency ?

THERE ARE LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF COUNTIES between fairfax*and Corpus Christi

(not even a shipping town, ergo by road or plane or helicopter helicopter)

there is no doubt fairfax spent money on gear in the name of "rescuing people not in fairfax" and will be spending OVERTIME PAY on people flown to Texas who will likely stay in (hotels maybe casinos)

who made fairfax a nationwide emergency team moreso than any of the thousands of counties between here and texas? fact is: no one. it's all democrat spending and vacationing with an underscore on "justifying spending" (funneling money out of other families)

Hopefully they can enjoy some "Secret Service" type fun. ; )

Costs are reimbursed, our team gets hands-on experience in the field (very valuable), and people there need help (read up on some christianity).

And who the heck goes to Corpus Christi for vacation? It's sort of an armpit of Texas, and certainly even worse during flooding and power outages.

It's been years since the TF-1 fags from FCFRD rescued anyone on one of these junkets.

They get at least double time OT, never mind the massive callback OT from all the holes in staffing when they are gone. Another way to piss away a massive amount of $$$ for nothing.

This is a blatant lie. No reimbursement what so ever. This is a boondoggle they will stay a hundred miles away from the scene in air conditioned comfort. They will take day trips with their pets to observe the workers then return back to the hotel for a nice meal.

^ shit troll work, nobody is this stupid

Of Firemen making over 200k a year.

Texas says we don't need you, Stay out of TEXAS!

They shouldn't go. Their absence will take away from the manpower on the shifts here in Fairfax Co.
It's not that the home troops couldn't survive without them, I mean they sleep on the job in the bunk room and get up to a hot breakfast, must be nice, when was the last time there was a working fire in Fairfax anyhow?

Firefighters then they need to send on these "OT Missions". and 30 more in Logistics to support these "Missions", They need to get off 90 positions and give the taxpayers a break.

Let the Feds deal with it! Fairfax is Not the Feds.

Yeah, looks like a real party.

Okay, okay. Everyone, just hold up a second. sit back, take a deep breath.
Now, close your mouth and take a long, deep whiff through your Shnozz.
Yeah. That's it.

Now.
Can ya smell it!? I said, CAN-YOU-SMELL--IT?!

Can you smell that "what would Jesus (you know. The big J. Little Jewish guy with a cholo name?) Do?" Chrisianity in the air?

No? That because there ain't none. You are all a bunch of selfish, whiny, arse-holes.

Hey Duche Troll are you playing Laurel Hill today (on the clock) with one of those "Rain Checks" the chief gives out?

Looks like I'm going to make $300k a year in 2017 as well.

Thanks, don't forget your property taxes are due October 5th. Don't forget to fill the boot up with cash.

While they are away servicing the locals in Houston, what will we do if we have a disaster here in Fairfax County?

I know that is a long shot, but we pay our taxes to protect Fairfax County. What if one of our heros is injured, and goes on 100% disability?

Do we pay for the injury/disability for the next several decades?

that's not the way "disability" works, and they have insurance to cover that kind of thing.

Typically that's how it works, no? I know a couple cops/military who are getting a fat life-long inflation adjusted annuity thanks to their "disability".

Who pays the insurance bill?

Who pays the tax payers of Fairfax County for the hundreds of thousands of dollars spent to train these heros?

If they are injured in the service of OUR community that is one thing, but being Globe Trotters out there "Showboating" is quite another.

This reminds me of the Gospel story where a great earthquake and pestilence struck the land of Galilee. And Jesus turned to his followers and said "It would just cost too much to go help them. Plus if any of you got hurt, then i'd be stuck supporting you for the next 30 years. I don't have that kind of money".

BOOT Fund = Steak & Eggs all year. At least on the weekends:). Fill the boot so we can fill our tummies. Sad but True:( Boot Fund rules each Fire Company keeps all twenty dollar bills. Then half of what's collected goes to the fund half goes to each Fire Company's pantry. Eating good in the neighborhood.

Not content to put out fires in the county by which they are paid much rushing around is undertaken to be sure that they are noticed and described as heroic.
These clowns even go overseas to get in the middle of other countries disasters.
Quite a bit has been said about various funding schemes but the bottom line is that this sort of "look at me looks me" operations do cost money and taxpayers are funding them.

look at this way, at least now you can feel good about yourself when you don't donate anything to charity. you just say "my taxes were my donation" and walk away feeling like you've really helped.

we'll know this way:

in about a month check their facebook pages for "suspicious vacation photos from Texas". if they have any, they weren't rescuing anyone, they were just "getting out of town"

DEMOCRAT: "Costs are reimbursed, our team gets hands-on experience"

REPUBLICAN: "They get at least double time OT, never mind the massive callback OT from all the holes in staffing when they are gone. Another way to piss away a massive amount of $$$ for nothing."

INDEPENDANT: "This is a blatant lie. No reimbursement what so ever. This is a boondoggle they will stay a hundred miles away from the scene in air conditioned comfort. They will take day trips with their pets to observe the workers then return back to the hotel for a nice meal." INTARDESTING but prove it, would be a good story. facebook photos might help make the point!

Of Firemen making over 200k a year. I'm sure the fire chief does because he manages millions or billions in infrastructure and feds get that much - some towns pay more than that (and are in bankruptcy being sued - like san bernadino at one time). the others - i doubt it, but it makes a good lie! i hope it's a lie.

we've been duped! there's a corpus christi right in fairfax!

i can't find the orig. article i saw about their special FCFD "national rescue division" (unsure their designation), it seemed to be released the day Harvey hit (ie, not before)

but this twitter released on the 29th says the arrived in SAN ANTONIO (miles away) and were resting after the trip. (that would mean they missed allot of the initial triage, but not all that could take two weeks to be sure)

also stated is that SAN ANTONIO was serviing as a hub for many FEMA federal agencies and (i assume fire departments from around the nation).

https://twitter.com/ffxfirerescue?lang=en

(ps you need a big plane allot of supplies to mount a search and rescue if the place your rescuing has no supplies power or water. this is what made me initially question how fairfax might perform what the texas or neighbor national guards already had been doing in the mighty preparedness they had: connect to staff, water supply or depot delivery, routes, organize motion fan out, etc)

what interest me: did they drive? because 29th is days after harvey touched the sands. what supplies and equipment? (NOTE: the ?chief indicated water equipment was taken - i assume scuba and boats - but have no idea if that would fit on a plane or if they drove)

it'd be interesting to see a report, politics aside, of how much searching for lost people was done (area covered, and dates covered, and what fema had to do with who did what area when, how many fire dept. were in san antonio)

yes, yes, and yes

what if you trip on a sidewalk ?

the business side of things is that to keep one's head above water: one has to include that there is no end to unseen expenses

THIS IS WHY THE COUNTY SHOULD BE SUED IF THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR FIREMAN'S INSURANCE AND DIDN'T !

fact is in the 80's maybe 90's 60 MINUTES, a very highly respect and not lying news show, ran some articles on firemen or families who suffered because they had not purchased insurance with their paychecks and the county they worked for refused them aid. that was back then. i'm sure its' democrat different now.

people who give smack about the USA (called USA the devil in the 80's infact)

they don't know shit. they weren't threatened to be killed by their european bosses at their jobs.

they didn't save a life only to be kicked in the skull by the town they worked for

BELEIVE ME - if they treated firemen like that in the 80's ...

they threatened kids (ie, not to reproduce), people at beans until their next paycheck if their tire went flat (to pay for the tire)

americans were productive, didn't smoke pot during the work weak, and were under mortal danger in the 80's and into the 90s

it wasn't until the 90's that laws went in place for "workplace threats" and then later "workplace condition". before the later 90's that shit wasn't even law, and most of fairfax was still overseas learning to speak enough english to get across the border :)
