In Germany we usually have both working together. If there are bigger fires they both do the active work together. If it’s smaller the paid fire dept does the main job and the volunteers do chores like fully extinguishing residual stuff. Sometimes areas also only have volunteers for smaller areas and the paid fire dept is in the main city

Doesn’t biking to work/school accomplish this as well? It’s free and you don’t need to reserve extra time. Depends on the area but if it’s possible it seems good

I think that mostly happens because it’s a hard job and because people need money to live. If they didn’t they wouldn’t need more pay

Which jobs? Most of the time there are people enjoying something you wouldn’t expect

I think you linked the wrong comic in the source, it shows a different one for me

Thanks, I saw that today as well

Can you give a source, just so I know if I tell others

That’s why that is usually talked about in school in a lot of countries

As someone without an internal monologue and aphantasia I can confidentially say that this person is talking bullshit
