"Online training is a supplement only...that's a given. Obviously, hands on training is mandatory...so your high paying trainer jobs are safe".

Really?

Online training is a supplement to real training? That's like taking vitamins instead of eating. You think you're going to be hungry and your body will be nourished?

Believe me, if an operator safety trainer is doing training solely motivated by the money it pays... I think that might be a good definition of a fool. I traveled 35,000 miles last year in my car and averaged 16 classes a month training. Many mornings starting at 5:00am for travel time, many 2nd and 3rd shift classes, and too many nights in a Quality Inn. Doesn't that sound fantastic! A good trainer conducts training for a higher purpose.

And on a second note; Lambos are too flashy. I prefer Aston Martin.
