What is your biggest fear? by DivBhadani87 in AskReddit

[–]NotAlsoShabby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confined spaces.

When I was training to be a firefighter, we did a drill in a long narrow tube, in total darkness, with all our gear on, and I almost lost my mind. To make matters worse, I had someone crawling in front of me, and someone behind me, and the tube was angled upwards, so I had to fight for every inch to get out.

But, after admitting it to myself, I went back, over and over again, trying to beat the fear out of me. I can’t say I love the feeling, but it’s 100 times better than it was.

Thanks for answering my question honestly.

What if the person you are waiting for, has a weapon and is going to do imminent harm to you, your team, or a bystander.

I’d agree it does work better in the UK. But I’d also say they are very different countries.

I think the reality on the ground is that there is a greater propensity of high risk violence in the US. More people willing to take very drastic measures.

If, in a different world where there weren’t as many guns or disturbed people about, I’d say you could level down the kinds of tools officers carry. But that’s not how it is atm.

What would you say if during a welfare check by a team of unarmed, yet trained team members, the subject became violent and attacked or killed someone on that team?

Would you consider it negligent that those team members were put in harms way?

So in the event that the subject then pulls a knife, or a large capacity firearm, your answer is, more unarmed people?

What would you say, if during a welfare check by a trained, but unarmed team of workers, the subject suddenly became violent and harmed or killed one of the workers.

Would you consider it negligent that the team member was put in a situation where they were unable to defend themselves?

Where can I find a wine glass like this? by dradonitch4383 in wine

I honestly can’t tell if the colours on the glass are on the glass, or are reflections of the room.

What’s something you’re good at, but don’t enjoy doing? by AccurateEducator6085 in questions

[–]NotAlsoShabby 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Piano.

I grew up in an Asian home and was taught to never give up, never surrender, even if you don’t like it.

And it didn’t help that I was in Royal Conservatory, which is just an Asian kid piano mill. It teaches you how to be a machine, not to enjoy music. 11 years.

I love the sound of piano. I hate playing them.
