The city of Wayne has 14 firefighters and they're looking to hire a handful more, but the only problem is they're not getting people in the door. It's also not a problem unique to the city, it's happening across metro Detroit. Andrew Stager is a captain in the city of Wayne Fire Department, and he has been a firefighter for more than 20 years. He said the job isn't about just fighting fires now, the job duties have changed.
