I worked with a guy who was on a state fire crew (not California). The pay was super low, but he didn't care. Being outdoors in the smoke was way better than being in a cell and the time off for being good was worth quite a bit to him. He was totally happy with the arrangement and it sounded like many others were too. The state had lots of similar programs, roofing government buildings, etc. I thought I'd share how he felt because it wasn't all all what I expected to hear. I expected he'd rip on it and all I heard was good.
