Medford launches investigation into firefighter sick leave 

What the hell does "they're not from Medford" have to do with their qualification to be the chief? So they're only hiring people from Medford. That's also illegal. Im fairly certain that a good firefighter from any other town could do the job

Stand firm BFD! Mayors and Councilmen come and go but the fire department will live way beyond all of them! Start now by getting family friends co-workers and everyone else in between and vote everyone of them out that wants to be a dictator political leader! The fire department is one of the most powerful organizations when it comes to voting political leaders in or out of office! Whatever you do remain in solidarity!!!

imagine being one of the wealthiest towns in mAssachussettes and skimping your fire depts sick days ..this is pathetic.. Rich old world type boring egghead news

If it’s true that firefighters called in sick for the day shift then worked the night shift, that is a problem. It undermines my faith in these firefighters.
