Just why in the fiery hell would Burden even want this position at this point in the game. Just what one would want is to go to work where your are the center of turmoil, and who does not have the blessing of those very people he is set to lead!!!!! SMH!
He wants it because of the extremely large salary, neither he nor this Woke Commission cares what the employees think.
Silent Sean Frantom is “tuned into public opinion”? It would be better if he was tuned into doing what is right in a transparent manner. Are Frantom’s political ambitions more important than selecting a fire chief who is ultimately responsible for providing fire fighting and ambulance services for his family and property?
The whole point is to put the right person in the job of fire chief not someone’s bud as it has happing in the past .also someone that the men and woman of the Augusta Richmond county fire dept trust and will work for and respect .this is a job that people live and can die in you need a strong and fare person as the chief not a troubled one .I’m a retired fire fighter in the U.K. but was a fire fighter in Augusta in the 70s so I know the system and the working of the fire service .I back the firefighters in this one not the that ask and then deny that they ask to have someone’s name to go on the list .
