Practice makes perfect... Except when your life is on the line.

There are people who go through the most advanced military training in the world, and then panic and retreat when it comes to the real deal.

And I don't think I even have to explain to you the difference between shooting a person who's shooting back at you in a crowded, smoke-filled theater, and attempting to kill a defenseless deer in the woods.

My job is to train people how to use one particular computer program. My company implemented it 2+ years ago. There are people who still don't know how to perform basic functions like cutting and pasting, even after I've shown them how to do it 10 different times. And they use this program all day, every day.

The fact that someone attended a class means nothing.
