Last row of tables from the entrance, just to the left of the podium right up front. I think I was maybe third/fourth from the front. The young guy :)Sigirl wrote:Hey Pickpocket,
From the entrance, I was on the fourth row of long tables sitting in the front just right behind the projector. Where were you sitting?

Just went through the 4-day course in Austin along with Sigirl, so I'm a newbie as well.
I decided to become a CHL Instructor because I'm a trainer at heart - I spent several years teaching more advanced stuff to the military crowd, training is what I want to do in my new life, and because I love the idea that Texas allows its citizens to legally carry weapons to protect themselves.
One of the things that motivated me to become an instructor was the fact that there were a few people in my CHL course that scared me - as in I was a little apprehensive that they would be legally carrying weapons because they had obviously had ZERO training in weapons safety and handling. I think we have a responsibility to guide those people in the right direction.
I wanted to be an Instructor because teaching gives us an opportunity to make a permanent impact upon the mindset and outlook of a person.
Sigirl - since you weren't wearing a badge that said "Sigirl", where were you sitting? I don't know if we actually met, but we might recall having seen each other.
