Any problems that were caused by the "training" were swept aside because we got a threat from a terminated employee. There was a general email sent out that if you had issues you could contact HR and they would let you know when to take the day off. They probably thought that would have covered them. I was actually told beforehand that I could take the day off by my boss because he knows I am autistic and something like this would not be good for me at all.
This is just so bizarre to me. America just seems so foreign, I can't imagine anything like the cops doing an active shooter dry run happening in my neck of the woods, that's wild!
Would it blow your mind to find out that most were okay with it and some even thought it was cool? There were even a few programmers that are tacticool libertarian types who probably got hard over the experience.
yea I don't even have a response to that. Do they do that kinda shit in schools too? We had practice lockdowns here but it was just teachers going around checking if the doors were locked and stuff like that, but I'm wondering if it's more "realistic" down in the states

I went to school in the 90s so I dont know what the current trend is, but it would not surprise me if they did something close to it.
