While reading a book in your free time at the station, you hear a noise from the break room. Upon inspection, you discover two of your teammates, one being a senior firefighter and the other being a new-hire, arguing about who should get the last soda that’s in the fridge. The station is sponsored by your local and frequently gives free snacks and soda as a thank you for your service so the people of your fire department don’t bring their own snacks all that often. In this scenario, what is the best course of action?

Assume that you are the designated Lieutenant of an Engine. While going through some paperwork, one of your FFs, FF David, approaches you and says that he doesn’t like another FF, FF Kyle, and he requests that you transfer him to another Company or Engine, because of how stand-offish and aggressive he is when giving information on the field, among other issues with other members of the team. You note that this isn’t the first time that you’ve received this complaint from FF David. From what you’ve seen, FF Kyle is a good FF and has consistently served overtime or worked on his day off when others couldn’t come into work unlike David, but you do notice that he isn’t getting along with others in your station.

As you are going through your equipment, you notice that most of your tanks’ oxygen levels are near the ‘danger’ level where you have to refill it so that firefighters will have sufficient breathing time while going through a fire. You point this out to your Captain who tells you that you’ll have to go to a nearby station to refill the tanks. He tells you to go and find someone to assist you, and once you do, he’ll put in a call so that the other station can prepare and receive you for refilling the tanks. Going to the break room where your teammates are chilling, you ask if someone would like to accompany you to the other station to do the refill. To which they say just wait for your own refill station to be serviceable again. You…

Your station took in a new probationary firefighter (PFF) and your Lieutenant puts you in charge of mentoring the new member of the team, at least until he’s familiar with the specific rules, policies, procedures, etc. of the station. While showing him the basics, the PFF is writing down notes but he seems to be having trouble catching up. After asking him if he understands what you’re teaching him, he just nods.
