Unproductive Morning

What an unproductive morning.

I told my boss that I won't be coming into the office today (Friday 20th) because I have to take a driving test and resign from "One Stop Service".

I could not make it to "One Stop" today because the traffic was horrible so I decided turn around and head to Dept of Land Transport instead for my driving test.

I got there just in time before the deadline for the afternoon test.

I got all the documents I need and sumitted it to the guy responsible for checking the documents.

He checked the documents and told me to come back the next day because the afternoon test is already full.

He told me that if I want to take the afternoon test, I have to submit my papers before 8.30 am.. (how insane is that!?)

And like everywhere else in the world, in order to get a driving license in Thailand, you have to take 2 sets of tests. One theoretical and one practical.

I just found out today that you can't do both on the same day... and Dept. of Land Transport does not open on weekends.

This means that I have to take 2 days off work (without pay) in order to take the stupid tests.

And the funny thing is, I don't even own a car and I use public transport to get to work. I just need the driver license for my application as a full time employee at Wyeth.

So today, I took leave.. but didn't resign from One Stop.. and didn't take the test.

What a waste of time.. so I went home.. changed my clothes.. and come to the office.

What an unproductive morning.
