The guilty training boxes are now withdrawn and are sitting in the watch manager's office looking sorry for themselves.
We have an edict from RH saying that some trainees can continue OJTI without the boxes. It is at the mentor's discretion (just seen the buck). I remember several times in the past (one of them on the old CLN sector) when the mentor had to take control very quickly when the trainee did something completely out of character and unexpectedly. Remember boys and girls, people have failed boards.
IF YOU TRAIN AND HAVE AN INCIDENT WHICH YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED BY USE OF THE BOX THEN HAVE NO DOUBT WHATSOEVER, YOU WILL GET BLAMED.
