Success is right around the corner
After I interviewed Michael Caracapa, I was sure to ask him if he could possibly give me another contact that would be willing to do an interview. Right away he called up John Kinson. Right after the phone call, he told me that John lived only around the corner! So I walked over and Mr. Kinson and I set up a date for the interview. The following Monday I rode my bike over to his house and we started the interview. Although the questions I asked him where similar to the ones I asked Mr.Caracapa their responses where pretty different. My guess is because their personalities are close to opposite. John was an older man, nearing the end of his career. I could tell he had plenty of experience in the field. But when he told me he has served Alameda for almost 25 years, I couldn't keep my eyes from widening. John Kinson also said he wouldn't change his job if he had the chance, witch proved to me why he's been a fire chief for so long. John Kinson has had a load of experience as a fire fighter and I'm glad be was able to share some of it with me in our interview. I hope the next one is this easy.

It sounds like you've been pretty lucky as far as finding people to interview. I can relate to this because my dad has helped me a lot with finding interviews and stuff. Good luck with your last interview.
its good that you know people to interview for your your project. it sounds like the guy you interviewd gave you great answers.
That's a good way and faster way to find the next interviewee for the next interview. I also asked my interviewee whether there is another person that is doing the same career as him and it's more possible that he know at least one person that he might worked with.
