SPC Charles Brown 113034 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>To me suffering fools in the military means that you have to teach the same individual how to do the same task properly multiple times. In my opinion anyone who cannot grasp a task after having it explained or demonstrated more than twice falls into this category. How would you motivate the individual to get it done right the first time. I don't hold with the idea that there is never time to do it right, but there is always time to do it over. Anyone agree? 2014-04-27T16:31:48-04:00 SPC Charles Brown 113034

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The full term is "not suffer fools gladly". Which to me, means, to have very little patience with people who you think are silly or have stupid ideas.<br /><br />That being said...<br /><br />I cannot speak for Marine Recon or the Army, but on the Flight Deck, these people can get you killed. Therefore, I try to avoid fools as being alive is kind of addictive to me...like breathing. <br /><br />Unfortunately, sometimes these people end up higher than you in your CoC. If that happens, try to get to the one higher than them, and ask them their opinion.
