if these questions are typical there are in fact cultural elements to
the questions. For instance:

19.Your officer has just received information from the Battalion Chief
that a complete apparatus inventory will be needed within one hour.
Normally, this procedure would take 1-1/2 to 2 hours.  Which of the
following would be the best way for you to accomplish this task on
time?

A)immediately start the apparatus inventory since there is little time
to complete it
B)ask others to assist you in the job so that you retain a
coordinator's role in the task with little or no work involved on your
part
C)first look over the inventory, organize it, and see what will be
needed to accomplish the task within the given time frame
D)tell the officer it will be impossible for you to complete this task
within the time frame presented to you

20.You have just reported for your shift at a fire station and are
stowing your gear in your locker when you hear something in the
bathroom.  You enter the bathroom and call out, but there is no
response.  You proceed into the bathroom and observe Firefighter B
slumped over the sink.  There is a strong smell of alcohol.  What
should you do?

A)ignore Firefighter B and forget the whole thing
B)immediately take Firefighter B home without telling anyone
C)summon an officer
D)ask Firefighter B if he is all right, how much he had to drink, and
how long ago
