I know this because I scratched mine! Albeit it’s just a hairline thin but it’s still a scratch. I have a habit of putting the iPod in my shirt pocket and other stuffs in my pant pocket but yesterday I put a friggin’ pen in my shirt pocket. Damn.
If you like this post, please buy me a coffee.After studying for few months, I finally has the courage to take Zend PHP 5 Exam. Being a good 300km away from Kuala Lumpur, I had to book a hotel room and travel there a day before the exam day.
At the test center, I presented my MyKad and a driver’s license to the test administrator. Much to my dismay I was barred from taking the exam because of these really really really really ridiculous rules:-
Please be prepared to show two (2) forms of personal ID.
Both must have your signature, and one of the two must have your photo. If you arrive more than 15 minutes late for an exam and are refused admission, payments are due for the exam and delivery fees.
The test admin told me that she cannot verify my identity because the cards do not bear my signatures although both have photos. In my sane opinion, identification card are issued by government to their citizens and one of its purposes is to verify the identity of the bearer! Why not just accept the damn cards? The situation goes from awkward to absurd as she asked me for a credit card, just to see the damn signature. Not everyone can afford a credit card and I’m one of them! Don’t even ask for a passport! I don’t even know that a credit card is a valid form of personal ID.
So, I spent one more day in Kuala Lumpur, having high hopes that VUE will let me take the exam but unfortunately they informed me they were unable to help as ‘rules are rules’.
