Firefighter Humor
We got an email:
- It appears that IAD for the CFD has been appearing at firehouses to conduct searches of the firehouses, lockers, and any personal belongings brought into the firehouse by Firefighters and Paramedics. Supposedly alcohol has been the worst item found.However it seems that the city is playing dirty during contract negotiations, and firefighters are having fun at their own expense.Here are a few examples of firefighters making light of the situation.On a serious note, CFD needs to concentrate more on having safe equipment for the men and women of the CFD instead of random “spot checks” to find contraband.
The examples of "making light:"
At least they didn't find the strippers.

My axemen buds think these are funny. Needs more coors light.
I love firemen. Cops with better jobs.
I still would not want the beard of ice that those guys get around the time of that big football game that the NFL will not let us call the Super Bowl.
Benny's firehouse hahaha
Or the whores. Oops sorry, “sex workers”
Atleast they're doing them in front of them and not like some Stupid Jealous Dumb B*tch Sgt at HQ hahaha she too dumb to know you can't do secret squirrel shit even if your (equally dumb) colleagues conspired with you.
Ps he will never love you the way he loves 💘 even when you pathetically call him papi
Since you mentioned strippers does the admiral still give a break for us , and how good are the broads , the good ole days best spot for team / watch outings back in the good days
Hemhold is a moron.
Probably the dumbest individual ever promoted.
Obviously they have too much time on their hands
Wasn't Ald. Nick the Sellout Sposato in violation of a city ethics violation for posting pics of him in front of a CPD fire truck on his Facebook page? Well, he's at it again.

Really personal belongings being searched? I would be on the phone with a lawyer before IAD was out the door.
Enjoy that back pay
Did the inspectors visit during the sacred pinch and tickle time?
They put a Co's number on those memes? Holy fuck. i guess the days of "keep things in house" are out the window in these social media days.Glad I'm done.
Wrap the fire trucks with advertising??? sounds like a revenue stream to pay for new trucks (not really, the money will be stolen by the connected).
Locker Inspections, when a friend was in Iraq, they had a Captain who loved to do foot locker inspections, looking for alcohol. Every enlisted man kept a shampoo bottle or aftershave bottle filled with piss, for this genius to inspect.
I'd bet you dollars to donuts that cfd iad is about as qualified as copa to investigate anything. I wouldn't trust them to investigate the stink in my shit.
Yet. But is early.
This started with a firehouse way out south and the personnel were of a certain color. After the 1st raid they decided to even out the score by visiting several firehouses north of Madison St.. At one house they found a locker full of beer and then tested everyone working that shift. No one tested positive. Expect more raids in the coming days.
Lot of people missing the point. Truck 47 was often known as Truck ThirSty.
how bout the black dog in racist video from 20 years ago
Agreed, rode the gravy train. Sold is out.
Tell me more about that pole in the firehouse and what has been sliding up and down it.
Who's us? You can call it the Super Bowl all you want. You think they're gonna come after you if you have a few guys over for chips and dip in your man cave? You can even call your party the Disney Super Bowl Spectacular and the NFL and Disney still won't know who you are or what you call your party.
Who's Benny?
Why do house mice come on here to gossip about other house mice? Can't you ladies just discuss this at your book club?
When you have a raggedy ass mayor what do you expect.
Truck 30 has always been known as truck "thirsty".
If you bring things to the building owned by the city, and put them in a locker owned by the city, or anywhere in the building, they can search it any time they want. This goes for police too. Any lawyer worth calling would tell you your lawsuit has no merit.
Sounds like bullshit. Did the Captain open the piss bottles and sniff them or drink them and then just go "oh you guys got me good again!" and then everyone had a good laugh while the Captain stormed away?
I think that's a reference to "Aer Lingus" from back in the day more than anything currently happening.
spill that tea gurl
CPD has fire trucks?
1. CFD been working without a contract for 3 years I hope they win all.
2. CFD also been working back up radio systems for over 2 years that make no sense some of their new channels isn't 100% functional I fault oemc for this and one day it's going to be a big man made disaster or terrorists event that will over load the systems. CPD ain't to far off ie yall encrypted radios sux pictures that scene. What ever happened to yall "911 car radios" that the city had around 2002 or 03? It operated on a separated radio systems, 100 mhz band w an 6" inch antenna 1 1/2 core. 1 or 2 cars per CPD dist 3 for CFD dist's and street & sans one day it going to happen will the city be ready?
Upon retirement, I cut off the star patches off my vest and coat, turned them in with my actual star and hat shield.
I come to work drunk all the time no one ever harasses me
Alcohol in a firehouse? I'm Shocked, Shocked!
Coors light? If you're going to drink beer, Why drink that crap?
In the old days, that sign would have read Rothchilds. Gotta shop local.
I’m sure they didn’t find any uniforms in the lockers because their at home so they can wear to the Jewel and Mariano’s lol
Can't search your personal vehicle outside of a city building. But otherwise everything inside the building is fair game - it's city property. This includes personally assigned lockers and their contents. Also includes shift refrigerators and freezers kept in the firehouse even if purchased by FFs - they are subject to search per previous arbitration and court rulings.
Hard to find the strippers in the fire houses. Those guys blend withe other firemen in the house
Hope they start finding guns in the lockers . Tired of doing stolen gun reports from the cars parked outside the firehouse
Those with intelligent minds would have figured out it was a 5am typo
Retired Detective here...I always kept a bottle of whiskey in my desk drawer. Because every detective novel I ever read about had a bottle in the desk drawer. I never drank very much, but it was there in case my boss holes pissed me off with their games and politics.
Yes, the Captain would open every liquid container in their footlocker and sniff for alcohol... I don't remember if he tasted any. Yes, he was a slow learner.
i don't know who is worse, CTA employees or Firemen when it comes to wearing uniforms off duty.
The 1970’s Brady Bunch split level firehouses don’t have poles. Unless they installed one specifically for exercise purposes.
Was on CPD for over 30 yrs. Responded to numerous calls to assist CFD. A lot of the guys were fine but can’t tell you how many were drunk. Couldn’t even drag the hose. Had to do it more than once. Some get off work and straight to the bar for 2 days. Then back to work and bunkhouse to sleep. Real hero’s. Like teachers. Useless.
You would have to be drunk to get into one of the Departments decrepit vehicles
the trunked oemc system currently used by fire is a disaster waiting to happen. It is unreliable and has issues penetrating buildings. I guess the money is better used to buy illegal immigrant votes.
Ok, and?
Uh, dat be a negative son. They wanna search your person- search warrant. They wanna search your personal phone- search warrant. They wanna search your locker or desk drawers - uh, youz got to be present or a ranking member needs to br there if you willing turn over your shit- you an idiot.
You’re so cool can I be like you when I retire? Moron
I’ve been on over 20 years and have never, not even once came across a fireman that looked drunk or anything. Stop spreading bullshit.
No one was talking about searching a person or a cell phone. You're 100% wrong about a locker and desk drawers though. And no one is getting a search warrant to search for anything unless it's evidence of a crime. I'm shocked you didn't mention strip searches and blood draws since you want to be obtuse. Another cool little trick is that a boss can order you to submit to certain searches, and you're free to refuse without a warrant or an arrest, but you'll likely be finding a new job. Let's say you're about to drive a fancy ambulance, but the boss has reason to believe you're drunk, and your Stanley cup is full of vodka. You can absolutely refuse to let the boss check out your Stanley, but you won't be driving that ambulance, and you'll likely be looking for work soon after. Or let's pretend you just finished your shift on the ambulance, but that boss believes they saw you stealing some shit from the ambulance and pocketing it. They can ask you to empty your pockets, and you can refuse, but they're not letting you walk out with whatever you took. The important thing is that you're ignoring the point of this whole topic just to try to prove something, while also not actually knowing what you're talking about. I won't pretend to know all the rules and regulations of the fire department, but I'm pretty sure there's something in there about being required to comply with orders, with or without a search warrant. Now go back to internet law school, because you failed this test.
Your friend told you this, and you believed it? And you want us to believe it? Sorry, not happening. Tell us what happened to those who got caught with bottles of piss that they tricked the Captain into sniffing. Did the Captain just move on to the next bottle of piss until he smelled like 7 or 8 of them, and then walk away knowing he was bested by your clever friend and his chums? Did he say "jolly good show, chaps," and give up looking for booze? Did someone start a slow clap that turned into a standing ovation and an award ceremony with fireworks and a big cake? It's bullshit. At most, one person pissed in a shampoo bottle and got torn a new asshole for it. But even that didn't happen, because your friend or you made this whole thing up.
If CPD’S Internal Affairs Unit had searched 2nd District lockers they would have found the 9mm that Lt. Gushes had reported lost a year earlier. She never checked her own locker.
I LOLed at the Binny's firehouse.
Well done.
Binny's makes a big deal about being the official Champaign supplier of the Chiraq Cubs.
Imagine the sales opportunities for being the official beer and sprits supplier for the CFD and CPD?
Few houses.
Not all.
How old are you 100?
That went out the window in early 80s.
Back when all dirtbag cops took bribes.
That was business as usual then.
And don't call them "trucks" hosepullers get touchy about that.
Truck 30 was called truck thirsty.it sits next to Eng 47.
They want to get in the pinch and tickle
I was about to go on furlough and got heat exhaustion at a fire.They took me to the ER and gave me a blood test.Being close to retirement I had returned to growing and smoking so I was hot at the time.Luckily I knew what was up and took my 20 days off and returned to work. I there 10 minutes and was told My name came up for random drug testing.UOC shared my test results with the department.
How do you know if a fireman is at a party? Don’t worry, they will tell everyone
My dad worked on Engine 51 (Filthy One) and Truck 30 (Thirsty) back in the day. It was an old firehouse that still had the hay loft for the horse drawn apparatus. 6013-17 S. State empty lot now next to Elmo's. "Before you go call Elmo"
yes
So true! The worst is when they try to get the firemen discount at the bakery. Don’t forget to get a cheese Danish for Mouch.
The red can brigade.This might explain the hit and runs they commit with their trucks and engines.
Wait? We can get a discount at the bakery? My Lt. never told me this!
Upon receiving retiree's star patches with his star and shield I wonder to myself why is this fucking moron giving me his patches? Then I jettisoned this moron's refuse and went about my day.
Hard to believe Or were the results just on Your medical records for the day you were treated and the medical section had access to them during the follow up until you returned to duty
What kind of dumbass starts growing and smoking because they're "close" to retirement? You couldn't wait a little longer? People get sent to random after furlough all the time. It doesn't mean a hospital shared their medical records. I got "randomly" chosen after a trip to Mexico on furlough.
You make a good point.Buy why does a hospital do drug tests on an injured FF.And risk the hepa laws.I should have mentioned I worked as an outside contractor in UoC emergency rm before the dept.I my be a dumb ass but 31 years or 32 seemed like a pretty good risk.I quit drinking and waking up in the morning feeling as good as I would all day got boring.And you got cheated on the random(contracted)part of your test.
But they look cool in their flasy red trucks …
A hospital tests the blood of injured patients brought into the emergency room because they need to know what's already in their system before they put anything else in there that may not play well with it, or just to know what's causing the emergency, or how to treat the emergency. HEPA is an air filter. As for HIPAA, testing patients doesn't violate anything. Releasing protected health information to unauthorized persons would violate it. The information can be shared with law enforcement in cases where a crime has been committed, or where there's a public safety concern, or if there's a court order. Your case could have potentially fallen under any one of those, with the court order being the most likely. However, my guess is the hospital had nothing to do with your not so random drug test.
