My mate reckons or MMR as we call it, in the Fleet Sector, Mike sometimes calls them 'Herbert Whatifs'! We mean this in a tongue in cheek way. However in the sector there are many people who comment on things they do not understand or research or will happily take you down for your opinion too. We often see people on training who have heard some outrageous stuff through 'hearsay'.

In this episode we discuss why the internet helps encourage the 'my mate reckons' culture and how you can sort the wheat from the chaff.
