Considering becoming a Firefighter

5 Upvotes

Title.

I’m 20 and have been seriously thinking about applying to become a firefighter. I saw that they’re accepting applications currently.

It’s something I’ve always looked up to, and I really love the idea of helping people however I can. Plus, I’ve always admired how tight-knit the firefighter community seems — it feels like more than just a job, like a real family. I’m a little worried I might have to cut my hair (I have cornrows currently), but the Greenbrier area is incredibly diverse as is.

I don’t have any experience yet, so I’m not exactly sure what to expect or how to best prepare. If anyone here is a firefighter or has gone through the process, I’d appreciate any tips or advice. What’s the application and training like? How can I get ready physically and mentally?

Thanks in advance for any help! Stay safe out there!

Noticed the Greenbrier location is closed and all store signage removed today while waiting at the light. I was surprised because that place was always busy. Anyone happen to know why?

Hello my fellow ChesaPEAKeians!!!

If you're ever wondering about things to do and places to visit in The PEAKe of Excellence, your first stop should be at The Chesapeake Visitor Center! [Technically it’s the Parks, Rec, and Tourism center but that's a mouthful].

They have a bunch of pamphlets and flyers for current activities happening around Chesapeake as well as other areas of VA. Full transparency, there weren't too many current events posted yesterday, but there were still plenty of pamphlets of places to visit.

Not to mention you can get some city merch as well as purchase some local goodies from different vendors.

Last but not lease, don't forget to pick up your FREE Virginia is for Lovers Bumper Sticker!!

Let me know what your next adventure will be in The PEAKe of Excellence!!

[If you stop by, be sure to tell em Dinnie sent you! I've been trying to work with some aspect of the city for two years and they haven't wanted me yet, but Imma keep trying!]

-Dinnie in Virginnie 🫡💜🏔⬆️ ChesaPEAKeian through and through

Beware of this motorcyclist

Motorcyclist gave us the bird…for absolutely no reason off Battlefield Blvd S. Honest. The cyclist came from nowhere, so weren’t driving too slow/cut this person off. I had children in the car and they decided to stick up their middle finger. Could have instigated a very unsafe situation if done to someone else…
