Recently the Chicago Fire Department dropped a monster policy change regarding first due operations at residential dwellings. Uproar was easy to find online but we take closer look and see what the new guidelines actually mean. Firefighters hate change, but also the way things are so we'll see how this one turns out.

Tailboard Confessions are back and this time Angie and I are providing the fodder. There are just some jobs that we won't do at the fire station and they happen to be the easiest ones. And yes, I'll be taking the garbage out or standing there with the broom.

Also, a couple of the local fire departments had a nightmare week with several fatal accidents and tough calls. Their Chiefs stepped up and wrote a letter to the public that caught Angies eye. They provided a look at some great leadership and how to build a strong group of firefighters.

Picture yourself sitting at the table on shift. Stories are flying and you've got the perfect one to tell, but the wrong person is sitting next to you. Well guess what, we are the right persons. In our new segment Tailboard Confessions, we want to hear all the details of you best and worst moments. Dirt, scandal, conflict, and some victories of course.

On the topic of the wrong person at the table, we also talk about cranky firefighters and how they got that way. Is it worth it trying to 'change' someone, or should we just set the table and let them come to it when they're ready?

The firehouse dynamic is unlike any other and we are having conversations unlike the others. Join us and talk to you soon.
