Introduction

Hi, my name is ‘B’. I am a younger guy in the fire service. I started volunteering in the middle of a pandemic, wandered through fire school, got lost in medic school, and now I work as a Firefighter/Paramedic for a small agency, and as a Paramedic for a medium size fire district.

I wanted to put together this blog as a way to journal and share my experiences and thoughts. I am not here to make my name big or find glory in sharing my stories. At the end of the day, whether 0 people or 1,000 people read this, I don’t think that matters. I just want to share and maybe make some folks think, learn, or laugh.

Identity

I will likely always go by ‘B’. I will likely always be employed by non-descript organizations or agencies. This is not to try and hide who I am or masquerade my message, but rather to let me be me and talk about what’s on my mind. In a lot of ways, this is just a publicly readable journal of me.

Anyways, if you have stumbled upon this blog, I hope that you enjoyed my Backstep Thoughts

Stay safe out there,

‘B’
