DOES YOUR DEPT. ALLOW YOU TO GO ON FIRELINK WHILE ON DUTY?? OR, DO THE DEPT. HEADS FEEL THAT IT IS NOTHING MORE THAN A MY SPACE??

I am a volunteer and my fire chief is a member here so he really don't mind if we do it at the station. I am surpirsed that my job hasn't firewalled it out yet, so for now I can check in during the day at work as well as at home and at the station.

We don't have internet access except in the 2 offices that are for the LT's, CAPTs and Chief. I know they use the computers to check email, etc. But none are on firelink that I know of. We can bring our laptops if and when we come into the station and sit for shifts along as we have our own internet access.

I'm surprised my job hasn't outright disowned it too. I wish that the videos, quizzes, and other items weren't blocked. Something about the way they are streaming and such.
