This fits. I denied an applicant recently because he had not yet acquired the level of fear necessary to succeed in the role. Lack of fear means stupid mistakes. I'll take the battle-hardened veteran any day.

Basically, I'm the guy from the meme that keeps a loaded gun next to his printer. I also keep my media backed up in a fire-safe, offsite.
