i need some advice

so there is this girl in my fire station, she's ems primary but occasionally will run a fire duty crew. she is sweet as icing to everyone but me. which i really don't care about. however what i do care about is this--- i was out for two months cause i had surgery on my ankle...well while i was gone we switched from msa to scott, i went up to the station last night to get qualified on it. my officer went over the pack with me and after about 10 minutes he had me put it on, turn my hood around, and crawl through a small obstacle course- well since it was my first time wearing it and i had gloves on, trying to take the pack off to get through the one obstacle posed as a challenge. and who do i hear laughing in the midst of everyone else encouraging me?- her (no names) but she was laughing at me and i dont know what to do about this. she is a complete b-tch because i pose "female competition" to her ( she likes to go to the fire house to flirt with the guys and i guess she thinks thats what i want) so i dont know what to do about her. her mom has gotten people kicked out for "talking" about her ( not that anyone was lying when they did call her names) but i need help, i do not know what to do about her short of punching her in the face!

this punching thing keeps coming up again and again! too bad i can't-unless i said earlier- she hits first! and i am fully confident on the scott now- confident enough to help others out when they get caught up- confident to enough to share my knowledge on it with explorers training for a competition.
confident enough to fight a fire with it on--too bad we don't get fires in good old evesham!--the squad was runing non-stop today but not one call for us!

is the NHL still a league? Haven't they disbanded for lack of domestic interest?

This is the kind of B S that gives women a bad name in the fire service. Sorry guys a female is saying it now. They need to get over it!

I am not bored, just scatterbrained. When I have scatterbrain syndrome, I go on a comment bender on a mass of differing topics. I am hoping to see some new material soon. :) (something other than personal fueds and pissing in cheerios)

I would think that you should talk to one of your officers if "she" is sch a problem. They may be able to smooth things over. Other than that I can only suggest ignoring her. I know it's hard but she is not worth your career.
