Hey Rob, I was just checking out your profile and your introduction thread and I've got to say it's quite ironic because I'm a 28 year old currently trying to get a job out here in Cali as a firefighter!

I saw your page and was like, wow, he's a firefighter and likes collecting Uncharted... that sounds like me! And then checked your thread and I saw you were my age....

.... Spooky...

Yeah I am deffinately going to comic con to pick that one up, god willing of course. Thats cool that you want to be a firefighter. I was first in the Navy as a Navy seal, and got discharged for getting shot at my foot. Then went into S.W.A.T, and now I am a firefighter because I love there schedule. I am 24 on and 72 off. IT use to be 24 on and 48 off but I transfered to boca raton because they get paid the same amount around my area and work less days.

I had looked into getting into S.W.A.T as well. I had wanted to be a cop since I was little but I decided I would rather be apart of a specialized group such as S.W.A.T.

I eventually set my sights on Firefighting during my senior year of High School, and it's taken me this long to take it seriously. But I'm full steam ahead now.

Honestly I think you should for a firefighter because they work less hours, get paid more, risk there lives less, and get more respect, because cops give themselves a bad rap. At least no one likes the cops over here in florida because they take advantage of there job. I honestly am one of the ones that dont have respect for them.

Well I just got the drake figure today and all I could say is that its beautiful. I will post pictures as soon as I can.

Yeah, cops have it harder but their attitudes sometimes make it hard to sympathize with them. I love the hours a firefighter gets and when I did my ride out with my local station for my EMT training nearly EVERBODY waves at you. It's AMAZING!!!

Congratz and can't wait to see your pics of the figure!
