Hoping to enjoy some safe target practice today only to be harangued by some young sh%t, hot-headed range officer. Having just shot the center out of my target with my 9mm, this young idiot claimed that I hit a ceiling rafter by aiming to high. I told him to count the holes: 15 hits with a 15 round magazine. Trying, pathetically, to assert himself with a stern glare, he stated, forcefully, "don't shoot high." Then the little ______ stood behind me for five minutes. Seriously, who thinks hiring some 20 year old hot-head to be a range officer is a good idea? Yet another reason to swear-off that place (as if their ridiculous retail prices aren't bad enough!).
Temperament of a range officer is important. You can be assertive while still being calm, professional and polite. Two more things. Don't touch my weapon without asking and keep your "know-it-all" attitude to yourself too. You might be talking to someone who has five lifetimes worth of shooting experience. Soapbox: "DISMOUNT!"
