Now they don't say things as openly in my presence any longer cause they know I'm going to call them on it. Which depending on how you look at it is a good thing because I refuse to jump on this band wagon to go along to get along. But I want peace in my own head... I may just be pissed. Is it ok to be pissed off when newly getting sober?
First of all...congrats on 30 days! You ROCK!
Second...it's ok to be pissed off early in sobriety just DON'T drink over it. If you can avoid being pissed that's better but life does not always allow that. (As I'm sure you know) :-/
As far as those idiots who are picking on that poor person, I personally would talk to the counselor in private and let him/her know what's going on. That is so immature what they are doing and I would want someone to stick up for ME! I'm the type of person that has no trouble calling people out who do stuff like that though. Heck...I hate bullies so much that I would probably just tell the counselor in front of them. But you could do it in private or write an anonymous letter too.
Do you think the person being bullied is aware of it or upset over it?
