Having been through several seasons as a Carded fuel truck driver, I can actually sympathise with some of the pilots whos driver's are usually - a. Causing grief at the base, b. Sleeping on the job or not staying on station, c. losing or breaking equipment, or d. just plain lost, unable to read a map.


On the other hand, whiny pilots who find out they actually HATE flying fires and have no interest in daily briefings, aircraft maintenance or communication with the driver are also a pain to deal with. So it goes both ways. Fire season can often be an interesting and challenging project if you're open minded and have a decent work ethic. If you don't, then you probably deserve whatever misery befalls you.
