Wait this was a salt commercial ? !?!?!?<| sep |> Pretty much nothing else . A broken clock is right twice a day <| sep |> uferrisIS , Thanks for your inquiry . Like the more well understood Police Department , our agency has ranks and tenure that span from Firefighter Recruit to Chief of the Department . The majority of uniformed members at our agency are compensated in accordance with two Memorandum of Understanding signed by labor and City leaders , that declare salary provisions . One is for recruit through Fire Captain trainee through supervisor 19 . pdf . the other covers Chief Officers management 16 . pdfOf course , these are the prescribed rules that calculate pay and benefits . Actual recompense for individual employees may be range higher or lower , depending upon that person ' s assignment and workload . We hope this information helps . Respectfully Yours in Safety and Service , Brian H u m p h r e y F i refighterSpecialistPublic Service OfficerLos Angeles Fire Department
