There are times I really get tired of my job. You probably know the feeling; you wake up one particular morning and your head hurts at the prospect of another day at the office.

Recently, a photo has been circulating online that highlights the incredible bravery of firefighters and sheds light on the extreme conditions they sometimes face.
