Impeaching a Firefighter

 

Intro

In this week's episode of Jumpseat Radio host, Ryan Pennington compares an underperforming firefighter to the current situation of the American President.  

How do you see an impeachment coming

  • Failing on the foreground
  • Not pulling your weight
  • Continually not adjusting for course correction

what if your crew impeached you

  • violations
  • policies
  • how would you take it
  • Can you defend your actions
  • not getting along

Do you have a vote

  • once you have identified a sub-par firefighter
  • are you one to judge… do you walk the talk
  • those who live in glass houses 
  • is it just a popularity contest

How to prevent an impeached firefighter

  • Focus on the members 
  • Focus on the mission
  • Focus on the needs of the community
  • Put your needs and wants second
  • remember how you earned your spot and earn it each day

 

are you on the impeachment block inside your firehouse

You are comfortable where you're at. 
 
    When was the last time you were pushed to your limits
    How do you honestly Judge your Fireground performance 
    Does it take a mistake or a near miss to change it  
    Does it take a health scare or near miss to make you work harder. 
    Tim McGraw “live like you are dying 
 
 
You are putting your needs ahead of the others. 
 
    Station life is hard. 
    Supporting your officer 
    Pushing your firefighters around you 
    Being selfish in needs…  What makes your comfortable whether its television, or “creature comforts’ 
    Not mission focused..  Gear prep, response, prep  
    Don’t know your area enough 
 
You won’t allow yourself to Fail or be embarrassed  
    You don’t see yourself from the outside in 
     You're see you skills and abilities as good enough 
    You see your fitness as good enough  
    All your fires have gone out so far. 
    Nothing bad has happened. 
 
 
Review 
 
How do you want to push yourself and others.  
 Is your company the go-to company.   
How do you evaluate your performance
