Doesn’t everyone spend a bit of time worrying about washing the DNA off your hands?

Doesn’t everyone start their morning read with “After a mass fatality incident…”

Look, let’s be real honest – this isn’t exciting, but completely necessary esp to deal with the challenges of disaster response and recovery.

I can confirm:

• Emergency Management is not your typical 9-5 job.
• The nature of our job is to make sense out of non-sense.
• We must organize chaos into a coordinated response.
• We are tasked to building relationships where none exist.

But good Emergency Managers? You’ll see them thrive in this environment and often excel in adversity.

You’ll know when you see one.
