We don't have ambulances near us so the fire dept are the people who show up when you call 911. I…read morehad severe chest pain at work this morning, I was on the floor I was in so much pain and I thought i was having a heart attack because my entire left side went numb. These Jerks tried telling my boss I was just having a panic attack. They were condescending as hell and we're treating me like I was throwing a tantrum. Turns out it wasn't a stroke, I have a TEAR in my GI tract. Don't treat women or people who are in pain FROM A MEDICAL EMERGENCY like it's nothing. Oh and great job stopping my friends car from taking me to the hospital, because having me sign your guys release form while I was sobbing in pain was more important than my health!!

Our city is broke. Everyone has made sacrifices. I don't know anyone who has NOT taken a pay cut in…read morethis economy. Well, except for SLO FD & PD. Since they have "binding arbitration" (which was ruled unconstitutional, but they're "grandfathered" in), they've had nothing but pay increases for as long as there has been binding arbitration. Now that the city has cut everyone else's salaries, SLO FD still refuses to sacrifice like the rest of us. Special Measures A & B could go a long way to bringing our budget back into balance, but the firemen are using a lot of FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) to attempt to sway people to vote no. I respect law enforcement and firefighters more than most. My dad was LAPD. My brother is a firefighter. Still, in these times, EVERYONE needs to sacrifice. The PD & FD could have retained their binding arbitration rights by sacrificing voluntarily. Instead, they gave themselves raises while the rest of us suffer. Now they're upset that it's time to take binding arbitration away.
