My name is Azmin and I am a firefighter. My day starts at 8:00 a.m. Each morning, our
supervisor briefs us on the work we will be carrying out for the day. We checked the tools and
equipment to make sure that they are in good condition.
A quick response is needed every time we receive an emergency call. It could be a
house on fire, a kitten trapped on a tree or a snake found in a house. In any of these cases, I am
ready to help. However, there are cases of prank calls from people who report false
emergencies. These put real lives in danger because it is a waste of time and sources.
Sometimes I give fire safety talks and monitor fire drills in schools. It is important to know
these safety tips. Each building must have an escape route where people can run to safety in
case of a fire. Smoke detectors and fire extinguishers can help save lives.
I love my work very much because I feel satisfied being able to help and serve my
community.
