Around these parts the volunteer fire depts will descend on an intersection and beg for money, it kind of pisses me off, at least have a car wash or something.

They do that here too. They startled the hell out of the one who must be obeyed at a stop light last year walking up to her car wearing a tee-shirt, hip waders, carrying a boot he wanted her to put cash into. Needless to say, by the time she composed herself enough to remember she had a wallet, the light changed and the traffic started moving.

They don’t “descend” on the highway and beg for money. They have the empty boot fund raiser. Check it out.

They piss you off when they ask for money, huh?? You will probably be the first one to bitch when you have a medical emergency and they don’t have the appropriate equipment to treat you or someone you love. My area is covered by a volunteer fire department and their crews. I would give anything I could to assist in their efforts to improve services. By that’s only me. (sarcasm)
