Dear Chiefs Podcast - Your Fire Department Isn't Tinder

Scott Hewlett is back to expand on Rule #45 of his 50 Rules for Senior Firefighters: Your Fire Department Isn't Tinder. In his last episode, we left you with this thought: "Workplace romances are not unique to a specific industry.  But when it comes to firefighting and EMS: if there is any desire at all to date, or there are stresses in their current relationship at home there is no shortage of men or women around that will play the perfect option and there is ample time to get to know them on a dating level."  In this episode, we get into the weeds and discuss gender norms and how easy it is for romantic relationships to begin between coworkers (yes even married coworkers) in EMS. Scott Hewlett is a second-generation firefighter working in Ontario, Canada!  He’s done technical rescue, primary care medic, and fire training officer and co-led the Peer support team for close to a decade. Scott started the podcast in 2018 providing a conduit for the great people in the departments and beyond to tell their stories.
