Found out we're doing a mandatory active-shooter training at work. It'll be "non interactive" which I guess means no fake guns or practice takedowns or whatever they do to scare people. At least one of my coworkers has already expressed adamant opposition to this, so I have at least one ally. I'd be more opposed if I were going to have fake guns pointed at me, but if it's just sitting in a room listening to someone talk, I don't mind being paid to listen to their bullshit. Anyway, beyond what I've said, I don't know much about these trainings, so what are some funny ways I could derail it? Don't hold back
The training is going to be about the three "stages". Flee, hide, fight. They'll tell you to run if you can, hide if you can't, fight if you have to.
Act like you're trying to get information that would make you a more effective active shooter.
"Where would you say the places are that someone is most likely to hide in this office"
Either that or in the last third start highlighting how stupid the training is.
"How much are you getting paid to tell us to bring a stapler to a gun fight?"
"How is this advice any different from "get shot loser"?"
