The way I read it was that they were renovating this guy’s house when on duty.
Geez, Take the Apparatus out of it’s district and in broad daylight start working on this Firefighters house, isn’t a really bright idea.
Nothing wrong with doing “Outside work” , most all Firefighters have a second job, but you just cannot leave your box alarm district with two pieces of apparatus and start working on a buddy’s house.
I am amazed that the Union is stupid enough to get involved.
The neighbors who reported these guys will be taken care of shortly by Chicago’s “finest” and other firefighters.
Gee, I wonder if the house was built pre-1978 were any of them certified in the proper containment & disposal of LEAD based paint per the EPA-HUD?
It’s a $32,500.00 fine for each day they worked on the project.
