Your probationary firefighter of 7 months is neither learning his streets nor becoming part of your shift. He is stand-offish and avoids being a part of all shift functions. It seems that nobody on the shift wants to assist him with any of his required training and the tension on the shift is rising fast.
During emergency incidents he follows orders and has minimal knowledge of his assigned duties and responsibilities. He must be given specific instructions on carrying out routine house duties. He arrives at work 5 minutes prior to his assigned shift is to start.
He has been invited to several shift functions (off-duty) but has declined the invitations to all of the functions. This included promotional parties for recently promoted officers, weddings for shift members and a funeral viewing and services for a shift member’s relative.
