I’ve considered joining either the CFA or the SES for a while now. Both organizations do a great job for the community, especially in rural Victoria. I’ve chatted to people who are in both organizations and decided on the SES. Tonight was my first night, so it was all about admin and a light introduction to basic training. I’ve naturally got a way to go before I can be a productive and useful member of the unit, but the basic training is important, and everyone has to go through it. Having said that, when they found out I had komputer skillz their eyes lit up, so maybe I can help out in some way before I’m trained.
