Re: Lesson Learned 2016 - The Negative

I found that the pit announcer got increasingly annoying. He would repeatedly advise individual people to stop running but every time he did, I would cease conversation with my team and await the end of the announcement because it was just too loud. Furthermore, the announcer wasn't kind at all. He was usually mad about people not following the rules or not completely filling out a form and that attitude usually carried out throughout the rest of the day. Also, when he would say, "Who loves zipties? Yell zipties!" I understand how he was trying to "hype up" the people in the pit but he didn't approach it at the right angle, it was unfortunately just annoying.

Note: I'm not saying this announcer is bad, he may of just had a bad couple of days or something, I'm simply suggesting that the announcing needs a new approach.
