Fred the Firefighter – Character Insight
I created Fred the Firefighter as part of my Canadian Trades/Professions Character Challenge.
Firefighters are very important in Canada. They risk their lives every day they are at work to put out fires in our homes, workplaces and other buildings. The firefighter profession can be a very rewarding career but there is a dangerous aspect to it so, it is not for the faint of heart.
Becoming a firefighter takes a lot of dedication and a lot of hard work. It is a very physical job so you would want to be physically fit. You will go through extensive training and you will want to always be conscientious about your safety and also the safety of the crew you work with.
Fred the Firefighter is very hard-working and is dedicated to his job. He makes sure that he and his crew are as safe as they can be when working. Fighting fires is a very demanding job both physically and mentally. It is not a job for everyone but it can be a very rewarding career for those who do want to become a firefighter.
