TCD's New Motto: Driving Ex-Pat's To Drink One Person At A Time

Someone help me out cause I need it. I failed my driving test 4 weeks ago today. I scheduled an appointment at that time for April 27 since they were will full for the few days before that. They told me to check back online or call to see if I can get it moved up a few days. So I did just that and followed the instructions online which states I can reschedule my test 4 weeks after my last one. I found an opening for today, Apr 20 and scheduled for 9 a.m. I called the office to confirm and everything was a go for today. Well it went as far as the instructor getting in car with me before he tells me to pull into the area to do the parking. I say, "no sir, I already completed the first two tests." Well this statement was followed with vicious rude remarks and "you shouldve told them that" attitude. I am sorry but isn't it 2011? Shouldn't they have this information stored in their database? Why do I have to remind them what I passed so far? Oh by the way, when I met the instructor in the office they told him I was taking the bike test, lol. So then after berating me he looked at the form from the last test and asks me why I am taking the test today. "Well sir I rescheduled for today which was grated online and by the office." That was met with more harsh remarks and a return to the office where I was then berated this time by the lady at the licence window for scheduling today and not 1 calendar month from the last date. Um, ok so why was I allowed to reschedule online and have it confirmed by when I called? No biggie to me though, I have been driving for the past month with no license so what's another week? Yes I have been given no choice but to break the law since this island have sucked every cent out of me and I cant afford another 700 bucks to rent a bike. I laughed when I left the office and the same lady and joking and shooting the shit with her Bermudian friend. Good times in the BDA.

I'm sorry to say this Gigs....but they will win every time. The system in place allows for incompentent fools to make decisions and run the show, from top management to the ladies at the front desks, they wield their "power" in any way they see fit. In order for you to get what you need you will have to toe the line and do as they say and how they want it said. They hold all the chips and can change the rules of the game on a whim. It's unfortunate, but it's the sad reality. If you had a person in a better mood you probably would have your license right now, but you got a surly person having a bad day or not in the mood for expats....either way you will always be frustrated by the system cuz it's designed to pander to Bermudian ettiquette which is suspect at best.
Good luck
