Was a manditory training on how to deal with agression and unwanted behavior during work. Customers showing agression, maybe even assaulting you. Also sexual intimidation, threats and more.
Wasnt looking forward to this since trainings like this are usually poorly done without practical training/exercise. Waste of time.
But this time was different.
Guy in his late fifties that used to be a soldier, then a combat/weapons trainer, then policeman, then policeman-trainer was giving us the training.
Very cool guy and very usefull tips/tricks that we learned.
The training lasted 8 hours of which 5 hours were practical. With hired actors in simulated work situations starting a fight with you.
Seeing how you deal with the stress and what you can do better in those situations.
Situations like this almost never happen like this irl as most customers arent this aggressive. Very cool to see how poorly I handle stressfull situations like this though and how easily this instructor would defuse the situation instead.
First time 'social skills' actually got a meaning for me. And how your personality clashes with reality and what you want out of it when things get rough.
Ngl I can imagine how NT you must be if you have a dad like this and grow up with a guy like this as your example. Amazing role-model tbh, exact opposite of my own dad.
This guy was pretty fit and good-looking for a guy in his 50s, also very well spoken, intelligent, empathic and optimistic.
I honestly think this was the first time in my life I met a man, ever, that I would want to be one day; Personality and lifestyle-wise.
Different from when you just see a good-looking/famous/rich guy. That could otherwise have a completely trash personality.
Every teacher, mentor, dad, uncle, etc I have ever had I never felt inspired by. Never felt like they were good role-models or people that would have a positive influence in my life if interacted with.
Very positive day for me. Shows me that there's a certain goal for me, an inspiration, of what I could become myself in the future.
How do you guys feel about male role-models in your life?
