The Idle Fireman

You're being a fireman?

You're not just a fireman.

Who are you, brave fireman?

And he said, I'm a fireman.

I decided to go along as fireman.

He said, Always. I've always been a fireman.

He said, But I wanted to be a fireman.

And I said, How long have you been a fireman?

Maybe he became a fireman. Maybe he got burned. I wouldn't know.

At no point will the fireman look taller than the fiddler. No point.

What you see here are two lads, one of them larger than the other the fireman and the fiddler.

One, the farther away they are, the smaller they look and two, the fireman is always bigger than the fiddler.

At a very close distance, the fiddler looks taller than the fireman, but at a far distance their normal, their true, relations are preserved.

Coming home from Madagascar once, we had a fireman on board who hit his head on a brick wall and died two days later.

He said, As a kid. He said, Actually, it was a problem for me at school, because at school, everybody wanted to be a fireman.

Specifically, any fireman was entitled to payment for any hours spent on call in excess of regular working hours, and that entitlement had been denied the authors.

And if you imagine a kid pretending to be King Kong, or a race car driver, or a fireman, they don't all become race car drivers or firemen, you know.

Yet any other fireman or worker who spent periods of time on call was entitled to be remunerated for those periods, independently of whether or not he had actually worked.

The engineer and fireman of the train, injured during the raid and the guards who were rendered unconscious by the gas fumes have all been released from the hospital at Vandervere, Utah.

If the IMF fireman remains idle, it is not because of a lack of fires, but because neighbors, rather than relying on the fire brigade, are protecting themselves. This undermines the IMF s relevance and is at the root of the early repayments that have left the Fund with almost no income.

Although Employment Tribunal No. 3 recognized the time spent on call in the fire station as constituting part of the workday, it rejected the request on the grounds that the authors had not provided any proof of hours actually spent fighting fires or carrying out other duties of a fireman.
