Retarded driving instructor
Posted On 07/21/2008 11:16:10 by jared

This morning I went for my driving lesson. My driving instructor is a 68year old man, hes been very kind and patient with me. Unfortunately today he had to go to the hospital, so another instructor took his place. He was a really an arrogant bastad. I'd been driving for about 6weeks and my regualr instructor said I'd be fine for the test. This guy tells me I'm terrible and I need lessons everyday. He really spoke to me like I was an idiot, went on to say my "thinking is slow" and "memory is low" I tried talking to him and being polite but it was no use. There was no point talking to him, was too arrogant to listen. The only person I ever met more arrogant than him was a guy who supported terrorism :D Now I have 2weeks until my test and I'l have to see him one time.

I'm gonna talk to my dad about changing driving schools. While i was paralell parking he started complaining apparently I got it only 95% correct. As I was driving on the road he says I cant steer I was truly astounded. The worst thing he goes on to give me "life advice" he claims I'm too dependent and I need to have will power and grasp life, "life will test you". Having had SA for 6years and suffering with depression the first 4years, having dealt with it mainly on my own, it was a real insult.

It really hurt me, I'm over it now I'm just angry. He owns the driving school but his mother gave it to him. He hasn't done anything in his life yet he has such a big ego. When he picked me up he had to call someone on his mobile, after the call he tells me, "its bad to have a conscience".Should have known it was gonna be a bad day.

After my lesson he picks another learner up, hes in his late 30s and he works in a bakery. Today was his day off, and he was really treated badly. People have enough problems you don't need an arrogant instructor adding to your problems and belittling you. When the car stopped to drop me off, they only left 10mins later, i think they were having an argument. I was hoping the instructor would get punched :P I would have done it if i was stronger or more violent. (seriously) some people need to be out in their place.

I don't want to do this again, to let people walk all over me. Even if I get my regular instructor back I dont want to go with that driving school I don't want to see that man again or hear his voice.

I can't believe people like that exist. He was probably having a hard day and pretty much hates himself and or his life. These people like to subject others to the pain so they won't have to feel it themselves. Kinda like the insecure or abused highschool bully who takes it out on someone else.  Don't take it personally, i'm sure you did fine. Who complains of 95% accuracy? He's probably just letting his own insecurity effect him. In fact, i wouldn't doubt that these things were said to him at one point. I would tell the driving school you can't concentrate with someone like him berating you the whole time. Hell, i might even make something up and say he wouldn't shutup about his sex life or lack there of and i couldnt concentrate. He also offered me an illegal substance. At one point he put his hand on my knee, is that normal? lol joke. That guy should be fired though, but he owns the place so he can't, which is sad. Good luck, you'll get through. Bring a brass knuckle just in case. :)
