Firefighters hate failure, and when mistakes are made and they experience it, chances are they will work hard to train and correct the problems that led to the failure in the first place. However, it can be quite common for volunteer fire departments to fail to respond to a community member's call for help in a timely manner. Unfortunately, they also fail to address the problem.
