FireFleitz said...: No, I wasn't in the running for promotions. I ended up being 14 on the list. It was a learning experience taking the test. I hope to do better next time. Hopefully, my time at the ARFF crew has come to an end and I will once again join the ranks in the suppression companies.; 9:53 PM
