Firefighter Gear, Sarcasm, and Station Life in Print
The Burnout Bulletin isn’t here to motivate you. It’s here to give firefighters and medics something worth scrolling during downtime—gear drops, firehouse culture takes, and dark-humor commentary your chief definitely wouldn’t approve.
What You’ll Find Inside
- Announcements on new firefighter apparel collections (shirts, hats, and stickers).
- Sarcastic blog posts about shift life, burnout, and questionable calls.
- Firehouse banter in written form—because sometimes a post says what you can’t.
- Occasional guides that mix real info with sarcasm.
Why The Burnout Bulletin Exists
Because firefighters don’t want corporate “newsrooms” or feel-good newsletters. You want unfiltered sarcasm, dark humor, and updates that feel like they were written by your own crew. That’s what this blog delivers—straight, salty, and unapologetic.
