I get what you mean. But our office was heavily slashed in the last revision because of the competition, we actually had more to do with less men. each duty now has an average 1000 call point some as high as 1300, and still lapsing. not one of ours can be done under 4hs and most hit five. Now we got the downstream back it's gonna be fun, fun , fun.
