Agreed. And to be honest, if they're letting him sit on his ass for 100k a year, that's
their own damn fault, not his.

What part of voluntary is it that is so vexing to you? I could see if you were in the woods fighting fires and he wasn't, you being a bit annoyed, but you're not out there shoveling dirt either, are you?
I have no doubt- based on your description- that the guy is a tool, but if he wasn't doing his job and they're letting him not do his job, then it's the FD's own damn fault.
