So Gov Chris Christie was in the middle of a presser yesterday when someone from the general public stood up and started bantering with him on jobs post Hurricane Sandy.

Conversation got a bit heated and pretty much made a turn for the hawkward when Christie told the heckler to “sit down and shut up!”

Heated discussion continued, but the heckler was escorted out.

From the PIO side, a few initial PIO observations:
1. I don’t know who is standing behind Gov Christie, but STOP SMILING!
2. I would not advise yelling at people to sit down and shut up.
3. Maybe Gov Christie needs to take a PIO course.
4. Maybe Gov Christie needs a taser.
5. Maybe Gov Christie needs both.

Related note: $5 says that this video gets auto-tuned.

If you are getting started in taking a few National Incident Management System (NIMS) / Incident Command System (ICS) classes, you’ve come to the right place! Best part about the classes below? They are all online, available 24/7/365, and can be done for free.

Here’s a list of recommended Incident Command System (ICS) classes according to the 2008 requirements.

1. ICS-100.b: Introduction to the Incident Command System (ICS)

2. ICS-700.a: National Incident Management System (NIMS) An Introduction

3. ICS-200.b: ICS for Single Resource and Initial Action Incidents
