>>2553955id look at fishing boats. You will have no social life like wildland fire but will have a close connection to your boatmates. I have a friend that does it and gets paid much more. He works 2 months on, 2 months off; however, he also gets paid while off too. There is a lot of advancement on the boats too.
Out at sea, you can bullshit with your crew mates however you want to. If you work for the government, it is the opposite. They have tried to stamp down on sexual harassment and become much more strict on people. Government will just throw you out if something happens because normies will take pictures of you for the dumbest shit and your coworkers will throw you under the bus too. A lot of times with wildland it is peoples first job, so they have no backbone, or with lookout it is a boomer with a phd in fuck your future sciences that will spend all day lecturing to you about why humanity should be wiped off the face of this earth, starting with your type of people.
If you spend a couple years at it, you will realize you are in a line of a totem pole of government cock suckers that are exemplary at bending the knee for the next position in line - for piss pay mind you.
You'll hate your supervisor for promising you things like a donkey on a stick, and then realize with time that his supervisor has a carrot in front of him and so on. Government work, in other words, breeds quality politicians.
There's not enough money for the government roles, but for that job security, people have to go out of their way to make an extra buck.
>tldrboth boat and wildland will ruin your social life, but at sea you can speak your mind and get 100k+ a year, whereas in wildland you will spend the same amount of time on the job (6 months) and get 20-40k. Coffee is the morning of a firefighter, chew is the day of a firefighter, and booze is the night of a firefighter. Expect all relationships to fall off a cliff.
