New York Times gift articles

This is ridiculous. I am a firefighter with the FDNY and and I shower after every fire, shower before I put my civilian clothe on and go home to my family. I wear my ask after the fire is out still until I run out of air and no one is breaking my balls. Even if they did I could care less, I'm not the one getting cancer because I wanna be perceived "macho". This man has a legitemate psych condition and aparently thin skin because he is embarrased of his condition? We all make fun of each other on the job but that just a part of the brotherhood and tradition. Engine 329 goes to barely any fires, look up the numbers if you dont believe me. This information is available on the internet to everyone. This article is being overly dramatic. Unless you're on the job you wouldn't really understand. If the guys he worked with maliciously broke his balls then shame on them. I parked at that firehouse in the past while going to the beach and few guys I interacted with from there were assholes and im ON the job lol
