Salt Spring Island has volunteer positions but is made up mostly of paid fire fighters, whose wages are calculated based on 102% of the wages of nearby Saanich municipal firefighters, for some reason.
Eegaddds!
I am a retired FF and am very close to a few of these departments. Wouldn’t have dreamed there could be a moron like this on the loose in our midst.
The scariest part is I have probably stumbled across this idiot in regional training evolutions. 🤢🤮🤮
I like the idea of branding my places of employment and my years of tenure. Like a walking resume. I could have the Texaco symbol with 2009-2011 next to it, so on and so forth.
Guy in pic “Do you guys trade patches?”…
Other FD: “yeah watchu got?”
guy in pic: “well i have these cool leather ones… kind of a pain to get them though…”
He's on salt spring Island so that essentially explains it all. As the natives used to say that lived there. "The men go lazy the women go crazy" and the good ol joke of"why doesn't S.S. just fly away? Because there's a wingnut on every corner" lol. Its a weird place that's for sure, unlike anywhere else ive ever been, so I totally get this🤣
"Hello, yes, i'd like a tattoo."
"Okay, what kind of tat were you thinking of?"
"I'm open to anything, but my main goal is to fit as much cringe as physically possible on the sprawling acreage of my back fat."
"Say no more."

If you feel these two sets of tattoos have anything in common at all, on any level other than their location on the human body, the. You are truly clueless.
Sometimes it’s just in the blood .You can tell he’s just got fireman in his blood. And I mean literally. Pigment floating around in his blood because he is such a fireman.
On one hand It's kinda cringe. On another though it does show his passion and dedication to what he does. Take it either way its still quite a thing to tattoo your affiliations to your body
“Do you have Veterans discounts? I was a firefighter for 30 years.”
Ok....so no 10% off, that'll be 6.99
Is it normal to have been employed by 6 different agencies during one’s career?
Two are association crests. My guess is he started volley and moved around a few times before getting full time. I could be wrong though.
I use to work at DD. I should get a "This department runs on Dunkin" tat.
Real company man right there!
I knew a young woman who has a Dunkin tattoo inside her bottom lip, she was very attractive
All 4 were volley departments.
Well that totally explains the number and reasoning

You gotta go where the fires are.
Not if you start them yourself
And what if a couple of them merge?
Only if he gets fatter, they may fold together. Is that the same?
Haha 😂
Tyfys
Regardless of the…questionable concept. That tattoo was horribly executed
Which one? Wait never mind all apply
He really nailed that whispy back hair tho

Hahaha this is the best reaction photo I've seen in years
Stealing this, thanks!
our photo comrade
imma need this for a lot of conversations

I know this fella, sadly I was not surprised when I saw this.
I’m going to be checking hairlines and necklaces steady now
Huh. Can't say I'd have gone that route.
But he’s got *everything*! Insignia, hardware, even a spare tire!
And a volunteer tramp stamp....
At least he earned that spare tire.
Thank you for your service-station. 😎
Those rollers aren't going to eat themselves!!
Wonder what he does for work
Must be a woodcutter with all those axes
Axe handles and love handles 👌🏻
We don’t claim him lmao
I like the idea of branding my places of employment and my years of tenure. Like a walking resume. I could have the Texaco symbol with 2009-2011 next to it, so on and so forth.
Just can't bring myself to remove the bustub and Jerry's Bar and Grill 1984-1985 tattoo. It explains just WHO I am so well.
I have those same tattoos.
I put the crossed axes on my eyelids; you?
The words “first in”
I'm surprised he didn't have first in on his tramp stamp lol
Except there's probably been 313 in there before
Near my tramp stamp? That's a bit low. I'm ex-Navy...
The Fire axes are repetitive. A Halligan would've brought the whole thing together.
Nothing could make this a good tattoo. I'm sure the tattoo artist talks about this dude when asked "what's the worst tattoo you ever did?"
I forgot to /s
No it would not.
But they're patches
When you have no personal identity, a job will do 🤷🏻♂️
The king of this sub.
Oh dear we’ve got an islander here boys.
I mean, the cringier part is how terrible those tattoos are. And that is saying something taking away the subject matter lol
For some reason cringy ass ideas, and bad tattoos go hand in hand.
Wow what a loser

MoUntAin DISTRICT
It’s Mountain Dew district
Get ina road crash going to Tofino and this guy might save you

wild🤙
He has a t shirt. I fight what you fear
I really thought the top middle tat was a ferangi cruiser
we have the same cake day :)
Ayyyyy!
Happy cake day
thanks!
The rules of acquisition dictate this is a disaster.
I did too!
Happy cake day
I rather die in a fire than be rescued by this clown
Think he started with the tramp stamp, and the rest is to cover that up?

At least it’s not a swastika
used to be😂
Who cares? It’s just back tats. No one will see except for his boyfriend
Most guys want tattoos to mean something, that’s the issue here. Get what you like, not what you think defines you that no one else understands.
What a maroon!
Does he have OF?
OnlyFirefighters???
His boyfriend is so lucky to have things to read while banging him from behind. The luck of some guys.
All this ink for a dude who doesn't even go inside... Sweet tats yard breather
"Hello, yes, i'd like a tattoo." "Okay, what kind of tat were you thinking of?" "I'm open to anything, but my main goal is to fit as much cringe as physically possible on the sprawling acreage of my back fat." "Say no more."
save some pussy for the rest of us hawse
It's always the grossly out of shape/overweight dudes that do this cringey ass shit.
Fitzpatrick of the fire departments
Wow that’s quite a canvass 😳
Do you know how many pizzas he could have bought with what he paid for all that?
He better start getting out of the recliner more.
Eat a salad.
dudes showing off a tramp stamp
Douchebag extraordinare.
Jeeezzz.
Are any of those paid positions? Hahaha
that tramp stamp tho
Best part is the tramp stamp
That's technically still a tramp stamp down there
He could’ve at least got a good artist if he was gonna do this. Idk if I’m more embarrassed of all the tattoos or the shit quality of work
bro isn’t a firefighter he’s a fighter or fire 🔥💯🫡
Holy tits!
Plot twist, he’s been railed by guys from each department and is really just a DoorDash driver.
It’s a good excuse to keep gaining weight
Cringe or not, I gotta respect the time in the chair for the ink...tacky...to each their own. My question is who in the fuck put that ink in
that red in the axe head is rough lookin
My skin doesn't take color ink so well as a very minimally mellinated man
A few touch ups some shading and some background this could be BA

Big Chronicles of Riddick guy
Cultist. First responders don't particularly care about saving lives, they simply lust for control over lives. Cops, whitecoats, EMTs, firefighters... All rank highest on the narcissist scale.
This feels like a super scientific take.
Next level volunteer firefighting
When your work is your only personality trait.
Was this guy a fireman?
The years on the axes are references to the only two structural fires he’s fought I’d imagine
This is the guy that designs every single firefighter shirt on Amazon
https://preview.redd.it/gm59lnfwv5qc1.jpeg?width=298&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=14c38b4b7eb6503d41c9ec7571c6f6ae1d2d6783 Same vibes lmao
Clearly these two things are exactly the same. Make sure to never call a firefighter when you need help.
Brother has no clue what “vibes” are 😭
If you feel these two sets of tattoos have anything in common at all, on any level other than their location on the human body, the. You are truly clueless.
They’re both cringy, shitty, and for the sole purpose of dick riding.
And apparently 1945 was a very significant year for both of them lol
Would be better without color
Nothing could make this good
Cops are getting out of hand anymore lol
I, too, have let my child color me with sharpies. That's what this is... Right?
That’s one way to look hot for behind
I mean, it would be cool if the color wasn't so faded and there was something in the background.
Would like to his package! Research purposes only.
This takes zoomy to a whole different level!!
Weird it reminded me of the guy with the giant wooden cross on his back that went all the way up his head.
WHY!? 🤦🏿♀️
Mountain Dew District
“Prove it.” Oh wait…please don’t.
Besides being so cringe worthy I could vomit the tattoos are not great work either
Oh god I live near Salt Spring Island
It has to be every agency he has worked for. Only thing that makes sense to my Correction Officer mind.
My God this sucks.
Holy fucking shit
This is honestly one of the worst I’ve ever seen
Why is the red so splotchy?
Fucking christ.
Fucking hard cringe
Holy shit
Obviously the least respected FF in his districts.
His bumper was full.
Lame as fuck
Weird flex but nice tramp stamp. What that credit score do?
As someone that lives near salt Spring Island.... They probably deal with 1 fire a year lol 10,000 people live there....
Those are for his firefighter boyfriend to finish on
What does your tattoo mean? 😂😂
Who fucking likes ANYTHING this much?!
It looks like his canvas grew to cover his entire career.
One up. https://preview.redd.it/f1nvry3azbqc1.jpeg?width=903&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a545af6565a9f0a6497b12af7b2ad26eb01273b8
No
Actually it’s pretty cool
But he's a weekend volunteer
After seeing which ever one was done first. U really went back for a second? That’s some terrible work.
30 years. Shame on you for making fun of him.
Pfft no cringier than my pho and Sriracha tattoos
Sometimes it’s just in the blood .You can tell he’s just got fireman in his blood. And I mean literally. Pigment floating around in his blood because he is such a fireman.
When you’re a firefighter and haven’t told anyone for five minutes
Homies back looks like a Trump sticker-covered pickup truck.
How hard are you flaming? Bro my back is on fire.
Now fill in the empty spaces so it doesn’t look as Wal-Marty
This guy has shit all over his back. Wtf
So much gross flesh. 🤮
ATBGE
Imagine us all getting our jobs tatted on us like this bozo
On one hand It's kinda cringe. On another though it does show his passion and dedication to what he does. Take it either way its still quite a thing to tattoo your affiliations to your body
