My mate's a fireman, recently passed his hgv too and has been driving the engine 
Pay isn't great, the first hour of a call out is fixed, then you get a over time IIRC.

I would never drive the engine I know a lad who was based at croxteth fire station in liverpool who binned his engine into someone and killed him when on a blue lights call. He may be getting sent to prison for dangerous driving

No amount of pay is enough to send me into a burning house tbh.

I'm trying to get in full time at the moment.. Retained firefighter would be a ace if you live somewhere that is based nearby, I dont have that or I would have probably gone for that first.. Foot in the door so to speak..
Have to say the whole running into a burning building as people run out really appeals to me.. I think im wired up wrong.. lol
