Expecting other folks to act reasonably, in their own best interests, that's a different beast. People do stupid things.<BR/><BR/>But one of the reasons you train is to be able to do the smart thing when necessary, and without a foundation in reason, you can't learn those things.<BR/><BR/>I think I understand the intent, but the terminology might needs some tweaking ...Steve Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12079658447270792228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-81231530403346299892007-11-14T09:38:00.000-08:002007-11-14T09:38:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Steve Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12079658447270792228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-5869517801928511382007-11-11T18:18:00.000-08:002007-11-11T18:18:00.000-08:00Trainers all over the world still don't realize th...Trainers all over the world still don't realize that rational training has no basis in emotional situations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-41951608004351602252007-11-11T13:48:00.000-08:002007-11-11T13:48:00.000-08:00Hi Rory,my experience was the same but at a far le...Hi Rory,<BR/><BR/>my experience was the same but at a far less intense level, of course.<BR/><BR/>The school district I worked for needed us to sometimes <I>restrain</I> students. When it was decided a policy had to be in place to define such restraints, they chose to go with a company which taught their system to corporations all over NA. <BR/><BR/>The problem was it did not work. Even two adults on one student could not make it work, unless the student was small.<BR/><BR/>But if you deviated from the prescribed program, you were not supported by admin. It was obvious that the system was there so the school district could claim they had trained their staff and therefore had their butts covered, whether or not it interfered with the staff doing their job.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
