Fantastic haiku, Maria!
1)Traditional Japanese haiku are often written about one's work.
2)The string of haiku with comments adds excitment to each one!
And although your selections were far from rude, it's traditional to shake people up. In Zen Buddhism the "master" will sometimes even hit the "student" with a stick to wake them up, literally, figuratively and spiritually.
Oh, and thank you for saving lives, firefighter! We DO appreciate you!
