Firefighter Voted Sexiest Job in U.S.

No, I'm not making this up! Check out aol.com and see the sexiest occupation vote results. But before you start seeing images of sootfaced, square-jawed stud muffins holding axes in studio poses, check out the very realistic photo above. This is the real job depiction, a fireman in a hazardous position, standing in someone's attic that is probably too hot and smoky to breathe in, looking for some fresh air. Then notice the fire leg on the ladder next to his head. That leg is attached to a guy in full turnout gear attempting to climb a ladder laid flat on an extremely steep roof. The slip-and-fall factor is at death level. Firefighting sexy? Only if you agree that imminent death, broken limbs or damaged lungs contribute to sexiness. To me, we are the highest paid janitors paid by the City. We clean up everybody else's mess, whether from the fact that a house or business burns, scattered wreckage from auto acidents litters the streets, or sick bodies need transporting. We clean it up. We clean up floods, fires, and fatalities. Sexy.
