I know in the fire service treating rooks like shit is part of the tradition. I was older when I joined
and didn't like being treated like a POS. I wasn't one, I knew my job and helped at every oppourtunity.
Now that I have time on the job I treat new guys with a degree of respect. If they do something stupid
I will correct them and make sure they do it right so as to not get hurt or dead. The around
the house rookie shit I dont play that game.
We have a guy at our house who out ranks me but I have more time on the job was treating our rook
like shit. I told him he has a name and you dont have to talk to him like that. I look at it like this
most people who are dicks, are dicks because they need to be to feel good about themselves. If
you are insecure don't take it out on someone else.
