I DID? Where was I? I took a test? I hope I passed!

I took an exam and received the same email. I'm wondering if they just sent them out to anyone that has been registered with them in the past or present....rather than filtering out all past examinees

 

[Jennifer]

got one, too...did take the exam, though.

 

[csb]

I was joking. I took the test, but love that they blindly send out the e-mail. It's hard on the survey not to write, "Quit sending these and grade my test!"

Only two more months till results!

Let him know that no drives a car anymore that can be opened with a hangar.

 

[DVINNY]

^^^ Somewhat true.

My neighbor locked his keys in his car on Monday night. We tried for 45 minutes with a hanger to open it, then the tow service guy finally got there (AAA call)

I was using a hanger, and one time got a good grip on the door handle. If I could have gotten the handle, it unlocks the door. I hooked it and pulled it 75% of the way, and the hanger slipped off. No go.

But the tow service guy pulled out two tools. First one slipped in the door crack and had a bladder pump on it, that helped pry the door open about a quarter of an inch when pumped up with air. Second tool was a rubber coated heavy duty coat hanger looking tool. It was stiffer, so it got the job done. (<- I just left that one open for a comment)

So the moral is, don't take a coat hanger, take an air bladder door separater tool, and an industrial size rubber coated bendable rod.
