HUNDREDS CAMP OUT FOR MIAMI FIRE JOBS

Read Firehouse.com to learn more about this
photo.

The first guy in line complains that he froze during the 50 degree nights while waiting in line. He is not a candidate.

It will be interesting to find out how many of the thousand waiting in line actually take the exam and become firefighters.

By the time you pass the drug test, physical, written exam, psych exam and a verbal interview the numbers will not be so high.

I would bet at least 10% will not turn in the application because it takes to long to complete and they did not know you would need a high school diploma.

Thank you Robin for the photo: More than 1,000 people stood in line — some since Saturday — at the Miami government administration building Monday to apply for one of the 35 available firefighter positions. The city planned to only accept 750 applications. (Joe Raedle/Getty Images)
