As stated by Cody
By "goofed" my MV, it was very stupid. Pressing on a guard instead of lifting the guard, pressing the button and verifying that I the necessary items were happening after the proper execution of a "read and do" checklist was a pretty stupid goof on my part and a really stupid way to left myself fail an MV.
This statement says it all. During training??? It’s a goof…. During a check? Poor performance. With concurrence with the CP/DO… the student was sent home. The powers that be reviewed the training/grading records from day one to the date of the failed event… and during OE. After discussion and deliberation it was probably, by unanimous consent, due to poor performance, to terminate said trainee.
Any individual in this situation must take ownership of their short comings. Learn from those short comings. After all, not succeeding is part of the learning process.
