Professionalism

[Maha]

If someone paid a professional tutor for a course which included a test and failed that test by one point, should the person that failed feel pissed that the tutor then made light of the situation on social media?

[EJK]

He/ she should take it international.

[5150]

He/She should use non aggressive form of extreme violence.... ;)

[neels]

The tutor should refund any monies paid, or at least a percentage of, as they obviously didn't do their job well enough if the person failed.

Then everyone else should take the piss out of how hopeless said tutor is on social media.

Then blame John Key for not being of help in any ways. After doing that load 5 kids into the minivan and get a KFC drive-thru for dinner.

Well I probably know what you're talking about. The person wasn't identified in any way (except for the incident itself being identifiable to the person that failed) and wasn't making fun of the person and it wasn't the point of the post either (it was about the one point difference in failing or passing and the perspective of that)

I'm probably biased as I know the tutor, they have a heart of gold and definitely don't make fun of their clients.

I'm reasonably certain most see the humour in some situations they encounter during work...

edit: Do you know that it was instruction and a test? Might have just been a test and no reflection on their instruction... but hey, who cares about details?

It's like that saying, if a tree falls in the woods and nobody is around to hear it, will someone still bitch about it on kiwibiker?

The point of the post was to highlight the persons response when they were told that they had failed by one point, not about the one point difference in failing or passing and the perspective of that.

Wonder why he didn't post it on here? possible because the person in question could be a member?

[eldog]

If someone paid a professional tutor for a course which included a test and failed that test by one point, should the person that failed feel pissed that the tutor then made light of the situation on social media?

Only if the person was identified or vilified (?) in public.

If just used as an example (no id) then the person shouldn't feel pissed.

Who knows why they failed. tutor or lack of skill? or combo.

Only the person will know why. They should try again to not only pass the test but do as well as they can. It is only a test.


Making fun of someone in a group of friends/rellies is a usual pastime, it makes us laugh at ourselves.

[sidecar bob]

Who was the gimp that couldn't retain facts sufficient to gain a minimum pass after being tutored on a particular topic? That's the serious question here.
Theres important piss to be taken.

[RDJ]

If I didn't make the (previously defined and fairly assessed) grade, I didn't make the grade. Whether I was 1 mark or 10 marks down, doesn't matter.

Suck it up, study harder, try again.

And yes - been there and done that.

Passing grades cannot be flexible.

As long as the failing student was not personally identified, I don't see a problem.

Scaled exam results are scaled up or down before the grades are issued - not after.

[RDJ]

Have you not heard - the race card exceeded its credit limit, years ago.

[Swoop]

Scaled exam results are scaled up or down before the grades are issued - not after.

Meaning that the pass rate isn't fixed.

[russd7]

whats all this about passing and failing, i didn't think that was done anymore as that could make some feel inferior. don't ya just get a certificate for participating (read: showing up).

[rambaldi]

Meaning that the pass rate isn't fixed.

It might be that pass rate is fixed but pass requirements aren't (see school-c)

[Moi]

Is the problem the failing of the test or how the student perceives what happened after?

[BuzzardNZ]

Sounds like a case of sour grapes to me.

[RDJ]

Rambaldi is correct. Raw exam scores are converted to pass scores. A raw score is a score without any adjustment or transformation e.g. the number of questions answered correctly. The raw score is then scaled against a standard such that scores for all candidates are on a consistent scale. Say a yearly test has Exams, and one Year is more difficult than the next such that a score of 65% on Exam Year 2015 is equivalent to a score of 75% on Exam Year 2016. Then the scores (marks) on both Exams are converted to a scale so that these two exams have comparable results / scores. The US SATs are the best-known scaled exams - scaled so so they are equivalent over successive years even when the exam difficulty, and the raw scores, may vary.

If this situation is in an academic institution, then someone may face a disciplinary action.

If this is in a commercial setting then what recourse does the person have?

If the person concerned perceives they have been publicly ridiculed what can they do?

The question for you - if you were that person would you enjoy being publicly ridiculed?

I failed a Dale Carnegie course last year. There was a bit more than a point in it, mind.

Of course not, but from Gremlins post, seems he/she wasn't named.

Long story short, he/she failed ( doesn't really matter if it was by 1 point or 50 , a fail is still a fail )

Put it down to experience and have another crack at it ( or not ).

[Maha]

Seems the post in question has been deleted, probably a smart move. The comments that followed the first post were directed at the person's failed attempt.

[Moi]

Of course not, but from Gremlins post, seems he/she wasn't named.

That may be so, but the person concerned appears to know it is s/he. And so they have a perceived injustice...



Nobody was ridiculed.

That is how you see it, however the person concerned may see / perceive it very differently...

Great for business aye!

25 points and he would have been. You're allowed 25 fails and still pass. That staggers me... not having both feet on the ground at a red light is classed as a fail so some the fails are minor. Do you actually think before sharing your thoughts?

Well frankly if someone has a tanty for said reason, then they deserve the piss to be taken out of them thoroughly.
Anyone that fails in their duty to take the piss out of someone that desperately requires should not be trusted in the least.

Wrong.. not knowing what was posted and in what context is not your fault.

The person that was failed by the instructor did NOT have a tanty, where you got that from I have no idea... it was not the case.
All the learner said was ...''so I missed by one''? failing 26 times instead of 25 (25 would have been a pass)
The humour apparently was that the leaner thought he had missed by 1 not 26. The flaming of his character that followed was child like.

I misunderstood and thought he meant you needed a perfect score to get the endorsement on your high risk license. But no, everyone passes it turned out.

That's not fucken right! Some people simply shouldn't be allowed to have the lives of others in their hands, but there it is.

If I was searching for training in anything, I'm pretty sure I would search for the facility with the lowest pass mark. It tells me they take whatever they're teaching very seriously.

Agreed, just because you turned up doesn't mean you learnt anything.

I agree with the firearms licence philosophy, you can get a few wrong and still pass the course, if you get one of the safety questions wrong you're out on your arse.

If you get 26 wrong you probably should fail. And people are probably entitled to point and laugh.

Failed by 1....Surely you are taking the piss?

Being allowed to be on the road after failing by 25 is a disgrace to the system

failing by 26 is a disgrace to the person who failed .

If that person thinks he only failed by 1 means he has got very fuckin low standards, and no intention of trying to be the best he could and should be.


Fwiw....when i sponsored and coached my children through their licencing i did not accept 1 single fail.
If they could not take driving/riding serious enough to get it right, i sure as hell couldn't take it serious enough to sponsor.

The person who failed should stop worrying about his tutor taking the piss
He be better of taking a bloody good look at himself.....

[caspernz]

Having read the original post by the tutor in question, all I can say is that there was nothing wrong with it. The individuals' name wasn't mentioned, and the focus was on the person perceiving they failed by 1, when in fact the fault count was 26 when only 25 are permitted. Geez you gotta draw the line somewhere.

Would be the same if someone topped 100 demerits for rolling thru a stop sign, and these points were the ones to lose the licence on. Be like saying loss of licence for rolling a stop sign?

One could almost infer the OP has an axe to grind with the tutor in question...:facepalm::shutup::innocent::woohoo:

Like others that have posted here, your assumption of why I posted this is 100% wrong. If I had an axe to grind or what ever, surely I would have used his name?

I know who he is but I don't know the guy, Instructor told him that he had not passed and he replied '' so I only failed by 1 then''? This was posted on FB and the comments that followed were all about the students so called interpretation of his fail..ie: ''You may have saved his life'' was one '' Glad he is not on the road with the rest of us'' was another, there were more. I just thought that it was unprofessional of the Instructor (given his position) to post it in the first place. He did actually only failed by one point but that somehow turned him into someone who shouldn't be on the road.

. He did actually only failed by one point but that somehow turned him into someone who shouldn't be on the road.

No he failed by 26 points,
he failed to pass the abysmally low treshold of 25 fails.
he failed the attitude test by commenting on the fact that he only had one fail to many to pass.....
If he can't even manage enough motivation to pass an almost idiot proof "test" he should definitely not be on our roads.
The instructor showed great restraint not to take the piss at a level worthy of this dweep.

He was one point under the pass threshold, so Mibbee it is failing by one. But that one is of no more significance than the other twenty five. What is a perfect score? Because twenty five wwrong is a fucken hell of a lot.

I stand corrected, yes he failed by a total of 26 points.

[Gremlin]

So it's perspective. Which was the point of the post.

Some would say you only failed by one. Others would say you made 26 mistakes.

A matter of perspective...

[Maha]

The whole 25-26 point thing was NOT the reason I started this thread, why is that so difficult to understand? It was the reason the Instructor started his thread.

You know him personally, was the post on FB removed because of the comments that followed? or did he realised it may not have been his best move to date? must have been one or the other.

[sidecar bob]

Fuck me, this seems to be a pile of bile about what amounts to fuck all.
First world problem & fuck all of one to boot.
Someone fails a test, someone takes the piss with no names, someone else figures out who is being referred to & takes it international.
For fucks sake, where is the problem? Lack of having a life?

[Gremlin]

probably some whining fuck threatened to piss and moan until someone took notice, and it was just easier, more professional, just to avoid the menstruation than call you out as a fucken douche.

We've officially reached the low point of the thread... I'm quoting Akzle because he's right... :facepalm:

Just because someone has a KB account doesn't mean they want to waste their life logging in here every day.

[Maha]

Free to good (or not so good) home. One severely flogged horse with little to no life left in it.
I apologise for wasting everyone's time.

EDITED: to reflect what I really meant.

[Akzle]

hahahahahahahahaha. That's ironic.

Also. You should be apologising for wasting everyone elses time, cos yours is worth fucking nothing.

[Maha]

You really should start a poll about your own self worth like Katdasian did. You know, in that narcissistic kind of way you seem to so very good at.

[Bass]

Almost like the KB of old (except the personal attacks are pretty mild now)

The irony of it all for me is this:-
If after (supposedly) completing a course of instruction, the student gave 26 wrong answers, what does that say about the standard of instruction received?

This is what happens when children are raised to believe that there are no winners or losers in life.
Real life suddenly kicks them in the teeth & they are flabbergasted that in spite of completing the test they didn't get what they came for & a tanty is packed accordingly.

Fixed the typo.

[Bass]

Ummmm.......
No student tanty in this case as I understand it.

[Maha]

Fixed the typo.

I posted a thread on our local FB page asking if anyone knew of a house with a lake view for under $50K.. ''what a tosser'' ''who the fuck does he think he is'' and ''tell him to fuck off and look elsewhere'' were some comments. I deleted the post because the comments (though valid) were not very helpful.

[Maha]

Ummmm.......

Correct but the masses don't get that...chances are the student probably wouldn't give a shit.

It says that the tutor is clearly not a miracle worker, and some fuckwits are simply not cut out for certain things. Blaming the teacher is what's wrong with society.


This is a very good point.No it fucken isn't. Find another straw to grasp.


Ummmm.......

Nah, just cunts whinging on here rather than confronting whomever they have a problem with.

[Drew]

Correct but the masses don't get that...chances are the student probably wouldn't give a shit.

What the fucken hell man? What exactly is your grievance here? The tutor didn't directly poke fun at anyone. The student probably wouldn't care. So why does this thread exist?

Are you OK? Is everything alright at home? Because near as I can tell, you've lost the plot completely.

I agree in part, a lot of aggressive posts and not one from me... says a lot about the mindset of those other cunts.

[Drew]

I'm working on getting my aggression back to where it fucks cunts off. Mibbee others are seeing the fun in it too.

See Bass, now here is an example of irony.

It's ok, I did my own research & figured out who the real dreamers were.
It's not hard to work out when half a town has been for sale with no takers for seven years.

Yeehaw!!!
That's more like it

Go Drew


Takes me back seven or eight years

Sadly, I guess I have to agree. It's not a great example of irony

Doesn't mean you're any less of an arsehole butt.

21 sales in January of this year. Two in our street in the last month ...it goes on. Just have to be realistic.
The local agent was awarded top seller within her company for 2015.

[Bass]

Oh and as far as the irony thing goes, you're the fucking idiot.

If you take my statement at face value, then by dissing the student, the instructor was actually dissing himself i.e. the opposite of what he said.

Unintentional and not a great example it's true but ironic nonetheless, fuckwit.

(BTW, did you get that miss in the chair sorted?)

While I did appreciate her property investment "advice" it proved more lucrative to invest in A main centre. But I'd say that's not a bad result for her, given she doesn't return calls & talks over people on the phone, becomes condescending, dosent ever update her TM listings, & explains to people that she has no idea about that "that shows how little you know about property investing" as well as possessing virtually zero class.
You were great, but it was her that ultimately cured us of the district.

My understanding of what the Instructor posted, is that he dissing the attitude of the pupil. Not his lack of achievement.

Not irony.

Edit...

Cunt.

Your understanding is flawed. There was no attitude by either party. For the 35th time, the student acquired 26/25 on his/her road test and was told of this, student asked ''so I missed by 1 then''? where is the attitude?

[Berries]

There was no attitude by either party.
FFS. So what exactly is the point of this thread?

So if a person fails by 1, does this automatically permit him/her to regard themself as a "one percenter"?


When I did my working at heights/ropes and harness training, I nearly walked out before it started. The instructed gets up and does the normal speal, and tells us the facility has a 100% pass rate. I misunderstood and thought he meant you needed a perfect score to get the endorsement on your high risk license. But no, everyone passes it turned out.
That sounds perfectly correct. The funding for the course will presumably be based on pass-rate percentage.
Welcome to modern society and dumbing-down of standards, to meet the needs of the brain dead.
