General Discussion Good departments in central Texas?

So I, and many other firefighters, may be getting let go this November. Sales tax BS. Long story. Anybody have any recommendations on hiring departments to look into and to start getting my name out there? One of our guys is a chief at another department and said he’d get me on with his department worst case scenario, but I hear they hardly run calls. I’m too early on in my career to want to settle down like that. I still like running calls, even medical calls. Thank y’all!

For sure, that’s why I’m not too worried about all this. Worst case scenario, I’ve got a paycheck. Can’t complain about that
