Worst VE session ever…

Let me just say the VE session I attended over the weekend was by far the worst conducted I’ve ever been to. The VE’s were more concerned about BS’ing among themselves then conducting the session. It was noisy and very distracting. They let everyone else that turned in their test after me know their results but I’m still sitting there waiting. Finally I just had to go ask for the results of my test. It was like pulling teeth but they told me I failed and they had “forgotten” to tell me. I was told I could take it again if I wanted to fork out another $14. Needless to say I said “screw that” and left. Also my Gorden West book is probably no more. First it was going in the trash then I was going to burn it , but I ended up giving it to Rich for shitz and grins and I told him I didn’t care what he did with it. Will I try again? Probably not any time soon. I’m pretty well disgusted with it and these VE’s right now. I know when I’m ready again I won’t be going to that club’s sessions again. So it was a total waste of time and gas I ended up driving well over 50 miles, well over an hour in city traffic (each way) just for those loud mouth VE’s to yap it up the entire time and to basically aggravate me. Oh and I did send and email to the person who runs the ARRL/VEC about this in more detail. Who knows if anything will come of it, but I did consult a VE I know and was told that the session shouldn’t have been conducted in that fashion. I’ll just have to see if I get a worth while response…
