Failure

Today I had a new experience.

I failed a test..

The test was a pre-test for an instructor course I was invited to take so I could be an Vehicle Rescue - Extrication instructor for the Virginia Dept of Fire Programs.

I took the morning off work and I drove out to Leesburg from DC this morning, studied for a couple more hours to make sure I was wired tight. Then I took the test - I need 80% or greater to pass.

64%

When I got home and checked my email - this email came while I was in transit out to Loudoun...

"Chris,

We had to cancel the TTT because of lack of students. I will definitely keep you in mind for future Vehicle TTT.

Mark"
