My point is FIRST either needs to put a path directly to the fields like along the wall where the robot path was, or they need to stop being so rude about safety glasses.

First, I completely agree that there needs to be a pedestrian path to the pit fields. This was definitely an oversight when they came up with this floorplan and caused much confusion and confrontation at the entrances.
Second, an eye injury is low probability but high severity. And the chance is non-zero. The policy is safety glasses in the pits at all times. I don't understand why that is so hard to comprehend.
Also, what you might consider rudeness is a volunteer trying to do their job. Because they do their job (which is not easy), your team can compete and have fun in a safer environment for all. You might try thanking them next time instead of brushing them off.
