Active Shooter Training

[JustMeT]

Has anyone done this training yet? I'm scheduled 45 mins next week for it and I was just curious how it went for people who have done it already.

 

[Irdasur]

HR/TLs walked around and talked to their TMs with a sign--up sheet for them to sign.

We aint had time for that, because there was no time to spare for it anyway.

 

[Aredhel]

Awhile back there was a casual discussion about it among TL and the rest of us. Apparently some kind of training was being considered as well as adding a new PA code (code blue?) as code brown is taken ...

 

[Bosch]

There was people being sent for that training then all of a sudden they stopped and not everyone has taken it.

 

[hufflepuff]

We have hour training slots on our schedules starting this week, like we did with inclusivity. I have mine scheduled next week.

 

[Kartman]

I wonder if neck-snapping will be on the syllabus?

 

[IWishIKnew]

I've been told our ETLAP will be doing classroom training, similar to the bias training from a few weeks ago. No word yet when, though.

 

[oath2order]

I did not need to be told to Run Hide Fight.

First gunshots go off, I'm two miles down the road, yeet myself outta the store ain't stickin' around for that

 

[countingsheep]

Our tls are just having people sign i to workday and say we did it they arent even talking to us.

Honestly, one of the best weapons in the store are the soup cans. A good enough throw to the head, will knock someone out.

 

[countingsheep]

I will hold them down for you. I hate how lazy and self absorbed oyr leadership is.

Yeah let me wreck out some WD-40 real quick.

Seriously though, I have an exit plan. We’re 2 floors underground, so first place I’d go is the freight elevator. That that up to the loading dock to freedom.

fuck that I ain't playing hero I'm long gone yeet

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

I have 2 exit doors near me. I will fight to save others from harm. I am the captain who might go down with ship. But show up as a survivor in the end. Bad guy will be down, if I get my baseball bat after them.

"Let's Roll!"
I want you two on my team!

 

[Bosch]

Dropping vest, zebra, radio and anything that pegs me as an employee and running..

 

[Kartman]

I'll hide behind the Scott Towels and take a nap.

 

[NKG]

Fire extinguisher is s good weapon.

 

[countingsheep]

I have actually been in an active shooter situation and I did not expect my own reaction. Plan the best you can but remember when it happens you may react differently than bravado while safe makes you believe. More likely than not herd mentality will kick in. You will attach to a large group and run like hell.

 

[happygoth]

Omg! How terrifying!

 

[countingsheep]

When we all realized what was happening yeah it was something else. Not really an experience I wish on anyone. Ever.

 

[happygoth]

I'm sure, holy crap.

I'm glad to see that Spot is taking this seriously.
I hope they don't do the same thing they did with the ethics training.
If anyone is interested this is the link to some of the info from the training I had from the Dept. of Homeland Security.
Its for an office situation so different than retail but might be useful.

They are only doing it for THEIR liability... don't kid yourself.
