People that don't know how to mind their own business

Last Tuesday I showed up at Echol's gym at about 11:15 to get my uniform from the ROTC uniform office. It was one person ahead of me in line, but he was almost finished. It takes a good 20-30 minutes for Mama Dee to issue our uniforms. She has to take your paper work, process it, then check off everything that you need on the list as well as issue it when she crosses it off. Then you have to try the uniform she on and show her that it fits correctly. During the process of Mama Dee issuing my uniform she noticed that my paper work was not complete. So I had to leave her office and finish my paper work. I finished and came back about 30 minutes later. Meanwhile, a few other cadets came in for there uniforms, but I was courteous I asked Mama Dee if she wanted me to stand in line again and she told me no to wait right there. She was helping the boy that was behind me when I left, but she was almost done. So I waited, while I was standing there I began to hear whispers that weren't clear, but I figured they were about me. Since I couldn't hear them clearly i just left it alone. Mama Dee finished with the boy and was about to start helping me again. Then this higher ranking cadet yelled out to Mama Dee and said how you gonna help her mama Dee she just walked in here. At this time I was ready to snap because I was right. that whispering that I heard was the girl talking about me. about something that she didn't have details about, she just knew she was right. I wanted to eat her up, but Mama Dee responded to her stupidity by expressing that she knew what she was doing and I had already been there. The girl cadet shut up real quick, she looked stupid and she knew it. Especially being a higher ranked cadet she disrespected me, Mama Dee and herself by not minding her own business.
