This is a very vague question. Remember that a majority of firefighters are volunteer, meaning they are on-call all day long and respond when they can.
For the other percentage made up of paid personnel, they operate by shifts. The most common shift is being at the station (on-call) for 24 hours, and then being off (off-duty) for 48 hours. Then the process repeats.
However, the shifts will vary between departments.
All day
No, a McDonald's employee was not fired for buying breakfast for local firefighters. She, however, was on duty and failed to meet her work obligations that day. She did receive a warning, and was told it was okay to treat the local firefighters on her break only.
Cops earn more than Firefighters. Most firefighters have to take a few years to do hands on training. So, while they may work at the station, they aren't on a payrool. A cop does all their trainig first, so they already start on a payroll their first day.
Medieval peasants worked all day.
I am not sure of the year this happened, the term Kelly Day is named after a Chicago Mayor who learned the city Firefighters worked 24 hours on duty with 24 hours off duty all year around with no weekends or consecutive days off. Mayor Kelly decided that due to the work schedule the firefighters should get a shift off, to give them a three day break, known as a Kelly Day.
They work all day, everyday.
Nope they don't sleep. They work all day long
firefighters put out fire's .but that's not all they do. they get cats out of tree's, go to car accidents and clean up the ground .they raise money ,to flood zones, rescue people from buildings houses and burning trash. firefighters have a busy day .they got maps of cities , parks ,raods,buildings, houses,feilds,and schools.so if you want to be a fire fighter you will be busy.
