Oh well.....Not happy with that appointment?
nah its all coming up.....shed will double the length of the old one.Ok, thanks. Have been in your station once and it was a bit tight! My car shed is bigger than your station used to be.
old slab wasnt done very well either. uneven, cracked etc
Yeh a lot of strike teams from a fair distance away....closer ones yet to be deployed eg. Onkaparinga and Strathalbyn.Would consider the likes of Para and maybe Gum to be closer than Strath?
So from what is stated:-I believe retained MFS get a monthly retainer ($300?) plus somewhere in the region of $20? per hour for calls attended. I'm sure someone will correct me if these figures are'nt right.
* SAAS volunteers get reimbursed for travel costs & expenses.
* The employer gets paid if SAAS volunteers respond during work time.
* MFS retained get a small hourly wage
Have I got this right ??
Hmmmm, sound similar system but would be different on tax returns.
Personally I like the SAAS system.
Are you sure you want to do it for free you'll be there a while ZippyAt least it WILL get done!

aldinga, christies & morphett vale???
It would be very nice to see the Prescribed plans existing in Bom's for recommended responses. Brigades could point out 'No thats incorrect'.Been there, tried that. We got a copy of ours, worked out what needed to be changed and guess what? Nothing happened. Stiil chasing it now.
At Least...when something goes wrong...CORRECT IT permanantly.
Testing the MCT all afternoon and it now works.But for how long?

Welcome to remote area firefighting......Not sure if they have the man power but if they did may be time for a 3 pump at ceduna???Obviously not if they have to page out for a 2nd crew?
"i think they would use common sense to deploy tankers and hazmat appliances to appropriate jobs."It is MFS comms we are talking about after all.
Trouble with common sense - its just no that common.
cheers
Looks good.Maybe he could get some footage of MFS firefighters and put it on funniest home videos.
Sounds like you'll have plenty of video of Seafood defaulting and MFS appliances already at jobs in no time!
Is it intrinsically safe?
just have a strike that involves less available pumpers to be dispatched..show the potentional future.That already happens now, its what they call "reduced response". So they wouldnt be breaking any new ground there.
The public are unaware of what is going on in all emergency services and its time that they where informed,its also time the MFS showed its respose times to jobs,its time we all worked as a team and supported each other(my god did I just say that) I must be getting old.I read somewhere that MFS claim to have a 30 second response time. I think that that would be a bit un-achiveable in most cases. They would have to be sitting in the truck ready to go to achive that every time.
not sure where they will put it may be in the new compton station.....mmmmmmm .. 2 trucks in a single bay station?
Thas like SOP 2.8 that states SAPOL should be called for all incidents but a lot of brigades dont botherThats cause no-one want to hang around for an hour or 2 waiting for them.
MFS have been known to turn a quite simple fire into a large job as well.
And yeah, the CFS does tend to cock up a fair number of fires it attends.
