As an RO, my primary focus is on making sure that everyone is safe.
As long as that priority is met, then, like Denton
In fact, most of the ROs at the range where we both work take this approach. Its one reason why its such a great place to shoot.
Last Saturday a fellow was really struggling to sight in a scoped .44 mag lever action rifle. He asked if I could watch where his rounds were landing, and could I help him adjust his scope. In just three or four rounds shooting at steel I was able to help him get on paper at a hundred yards. He was then able on his own to get his scope fine-tuned to right where he wanted it.
We had a safe shift, and the shooter went home with a properly-set-up rifle. It was a great day.

I chat with everyone, ask them if they are having a good time, how they like their obviously new firearm, etc. I enjoy the interaction, and it makes it easier for them to ask for help if they need it.
