It always sucks to be the NFG. Suck it up and be the bigger man.

Hhhmmm, Ive heard this before. Your superiors are feeling you out. If you can work with these guys and not cause a stink you'll be fine. Stay laid back but still let your superiors know that you'd like to change shifts just because of personality reasons. Let me guess c shift?

Actually Im A shift. Thanx for the words guys. Just that they tell me to do stupid stuff sometimes, and I have been a firefighter for 2 years in departments twice this size and run 10 times asmany calls as they have. None of these guys have been in a house fire yet. I have been in 9!!! I have done cpr 16 times with 1 save. I have LZed 25 or so choppers. Worked countless wrecks, and even helped make meth lab busts. The 35 year old told me on my firstday that If I landed a Chopper in the road I would loose my job. Guess what? We landed 2 that day. Both right in the middle of the highway per the shift commander. He also said that If I didnt go up stairs for my hour lunch at 12pm, that I could not eat lunch that day... They either are trieng o get me in trouble, get me mad, or make me quit. But I just roll with it.... Sorry for the venting, I cant talk to these guys about it... I tried.
EDIT... My friend who is a LT. on C shift said that He wishes I could be LT. But the rules set forth by the chief was 3 years of experiance... I have only 2.

They put the bad apples on A shift? Sounds like your just the fresh meat to pick on. To them you are still just 24, experiance doesnt matter, your still new there. I feel for you and have been there.
