Woman To Become NYC Firefighter Despite Failing Physical Fitness Test

PC ‘fairness’ run amuck.
Via NY Post:
The FDNY for the first time in its history will allow someone who failed its crucial physical-fitness test to join the Bravest, The Post has learned.
Rebecca Wax, 33, is set to graduate Tuesday from the Fire Academy without passing the Functional Skills Training test, a grueling obstacle course of job-related tasks performed in full gear with a limited air supply, an insider has revealed.
“They’re going to allow the first person to graduate without passing because this administration has lowered the standard,” said the insider, who is familiar with the training.
Upon graduation, Wax would be assigned to a firehouse and tasked with the full duties of a firefighter.
Some FDNY members are angry.

All the FDNY Aliners have to do if they actually want to do something about it is begin a work stoppage in protest of it...
...or just suck it up and accept the continued deexceptionalization that's been occurring all these years when they haven't protested, either.
It's their lives. If they won't stand up for themselves...
...they should just shut-up instead of whining, expecting bbs to do something about it for them.
