Fire Chief

’a-ring, a-ring, a-ring……’, it is 6 o’clock morning. He gets up to go to work same as many people. In fire station, morning exercises are the first thing need to do. Then, he needs to inspect all the equipment in fire station. After that, he back to his personal office room to start his administrative duties including research into safety and regulations, budgets and personnel issues and connect with other agencies. This is the main work what he is doing every day. Sometimes, he also needs to supervise the training and recruiting of other officers and firefighters. As a fire chief, he is a highest commander at an emergency scene.



Be a firefighter is his dream since he was 6 years old. He became a firefighter since he was 21 years old. He likes to play different kind of sports and even have a gym room in his own living house. He is a hard working person. He can even dedicate his life to achieve his responsibility. So, He does not want anybody to involve in it, and he thinks that it is better to let him stay alone. At last, he reached the top of his career life to be a fire chief while he was 45 years old.

Time is passed day by days, he keeps on repeat doing the same paper work. He is 56 years old now. There was no any big emergency scene in the past ten years. It seems like a peaceful era.

Impetus lets him to pick up his duty again. Duty is which get really for next emergency, take responsibility to subordinate and save people’s life. He also wants a place for gathering with friends to start his new splendid life.
