It is however a fairly every day occurrence in the world of Donald though...

Agreed there is a time and place.

However, being told I'm sat too close to another student 20 minutes into the test is not the time, especially when I sat in the place allocated, i.e. where the invigilator placed the paper. Apparently it is okay for an invigilator to interrupt the exam to tell me this and then ask everyone on the row to shuffle about, but apparently I am disturbing people when I ask if they'd not thought about this situation when laying the papers out pre-exam or during the 10 minute interval in which rules/regs are read out.

Obviously, I made it worse when said it is also disturbing when they call for everyone's attention just to bring it to our attention that when browsing the paper, they spotted a spelling mistake in a question (that had no bearing on how the question would be interpreted).

An all around successful day.

Fecking invigilators. The majority of them are more jumped up than me so you can imagine how much they think of their role.

Something tells me that you've not yet had enough gins to enable you to take this in your stride..

Brilliant! Fight the power!

To be fair though an exam is a stressful situation and the last thing you need is some cretin interrupting all the time, especially if it is due to his own incompetence. I can hardly believe somebody would ask for desks to be shuffled during an exam and then point out such a trivial matter as a spelling mistake. Did you put in a complaint?

I can well imagine them hating you for that, but good on you.

I can see them now, all bitching about you over their Earl Grey tea..
