Friday night I ran a 19:00 to Midnight duty crew, which of course meant that short of going out for Chinese food we didn't turn a wheel and ended up being 6 guys watching a movie.
Sunday however we ended up with three calls. A car fire on the highway, which we were recalled from before arrival, a CO detector in a private home, and an alarm investigation.
The car fire we were recalled prior to arrival, the alarm system we were recalled prior to responding. Well we responded, but immediately were recalled, we didn't even make it out the door.
The CO detector however I was on the entry crew for. We entered the house (off air) and started to check, my other crew member had the meter, immediately the meter started to go up, "3", "4", "5". Simultaneously you heard the sound of all our air bottles being turned on. We never donned the masks though at 5ppm we were well below the limits and the oxygen level in the house was always around 20. So we were never in danger, it was just amusing that three firemen all decided it was time to fire up their packs.
