If you lived on a salary of 33000 a year it was many years ago and probably did not involve life or death situations. Personally I made much more than this to sit in front of a computer.
I am surprised to find out that you are married to the firefighter and not the firefighter.

Being awakened in the middle of the night...havoc with their systems. NOT a good debate argument. Actually none of the responses above are good debate responses for this situation. I also think that you must think we as Villagers can do anything about this issue. Are you really the wife of a RETIRED Fire Fighter or one who is now employed??? It FEELS to me that you have a dog in this fight.

I am not trying to embarrass you, just give you some tips on debate and presenting information in order to effectively sway the reader or listener.

Most of us who live here are very supportive of First Responders.
