Dev Diary 22 | Behind the Heart of the Community

[h1][b]A Day in a Life at Golden Bay's Fire Station 🚒[/b][/h1] [h2]7.00 AM: Rise and Shine![/h2] At dawn, I start the day with a hearty breakfast~ Who can fight the flames on an empty stomach? Pilled butter pancake, eggs, and bacon plates perfectly, enough to fuel a firetruck, And yes, don't forget a sugar donut to fill the adrenaline in the body. [h2]8.00 AM: Daily Drill[/h2] After the last bite, it's time for a training session. Gear up for some serious drills. These drills keep our crew sharp and ready for action, including practicing ladder climbs, putting out controlled blazes, and rescuing training mannequins. [h2]10.00 AM: The Waiting Game[/h2] Now our crew is trained and pumped. It's time to clean the fire trucks! You might think it's just another boring chore, but washing the trucks at the fire station here is a good team bonding experience. Additionally, there's always a competition to see who can polish the shiny equipment the fastest because nobody wants to be the person with the dirtiest hose! [h2]Noon: Lunch break with the different colors of the Community[/h2] Lunchtime rolls around. Our fire station often invites local school kids or youth groups for tours and lunch together, sharing stories, and giving a peek at the life of a firefighter. The smiles on their faces make it all worth it :D, and who knows? Maybe one day, one of them will become the mightiest firefighter! [h2]2.00 PM: The call![/h2] When you think it will be a quiet afternoon, the alarm rings! The firehouse erupts into action as the crew jumps into their gear. Sirens wail, and the truck races towards the emergency, with lights flashing and hearts pumping. Whether it’s a small kitchen fire or a rescue mission, we are always ready to put their training to the test. [h2]4.00 PM: Wind down[/h2] After a busy call (or hopefully a quiet but fulfilling afternoon), it’s time to wind down. But before they kick back with a movie or a game of cards, it’s back to the station to check equipment, update logs, and maybe, just maybe, squeeze in a quick nap because firefighting isn’t just about muscle; it’s about mental readiness too! [h2]6:00 PM: Dinner and Reflection[/h2] Dinner is a bigger affair, with everyone chipping in to cook a communal meal. This is when stories are shared, lessons are learned, and bonds are strengthened. [h2]The Heart of the Community[/h2] As the day winds down at Golden Bay's Fire Station, it’s clear that being a firefighter is more than just a job—it’s a lifestyle filled with camaraderie, commitment to the community, and a good dose of fun. So the next time you see those big red trucks roll by, remember the laughter, hard work, and dedication that transport through those doors daily!
