You have it exactly right. We need to hire yesterday, with our losses in September it has only widened the situation. We are fortunately about to undergo an administration change, but that will put us further in the hole for manpower. Fiscal responsibility does not trump safety of members or citizens. This is a failed policy all around, and another kick in the crotch to an already suffering department
