The game, while not a malicious threat, can divert employees from doing real work.

Fire Station 12 is a beautiful reminder of the heritage that is the Knoxville Fire Department's, ... There aren't many fire stations left with poles to slide, and it is exhilarating, while at the same time, (it) makes one appreciative of all those who have served in this station and the Knoxville Fire Department.
