What did YOU do today?

responded to a car accident yesterday, 2 white vehicles, sounds like one of them did not have their lights on

Too cool, unfortunate circumstances. Appreciate your service.

I used to have the red lights on my F250 when I was doing the HAZMAT emergency response, before the fire departments started doing it all, but they never let us have sirens unless we went through the Police driver training course. Too much liability. Red lights got us through traffic jams in the city, but I never wanted my guys speeding

It was my company with a partner, and I/we wasn’t the one who responded to the day-to-day stuff, only the really big stuff and political stuff. Siren (legal) is on my bucket list, probably forever more. I doubt it will move off the list. Biggest excitement I ever get these days along those lines is when there’s torrential rains or the rare big snowstorm, and they call me out to sit by a bridge that they fear will be swamped, or at the bottom or top of the long hill. Woo hoo!

Went shopping for some liquid shop essentials after work then after I got home I measured then cut, sanded then painted a piece of plywood for the loft ceiling, tomorrow I'll get it installed... After that then there's only two more pieces and that portion will be done... by the looks of the 5 gallon bucket of white paint I've been working on I think I'll be able to do one more sheet of wood with it so I'll need to get more soon...

I also did some surgery on a 4' LED light that I had pulled down, when I pulled it I did some troubleshooting and was blaming the pull chain switch, I had conveniently pulled another light that had more catastrophic issues and salvaged the switch so soldered that switch to the other light and so far so good...
