So, I left the car at the station . Now my phone is blowing up. Car is not for sale, they guys thought it would be humorous. Ideas for retaliation are appreciated.

Car in the background is set for patient extrication practice " Jaws of life "
Setting the cars on fire may be a bit extreme !

Find out who the ringer leader is.

Put a stereotypical fireman calendar picture in the ad, and his phone number, and a suggestion to say explicit things when the ad respondents call him.

Put the ad in the men seeking men section. Put the ad up on the first day of his day off rotation.
