     The examiner wasn't impressed and sneaked up behind me during the
     sending test and removed the power plug from the outlet.

     I've been a VE for 2.5 years now. I'm not so sure the
     current VE program is the best way to go, but it's
     horror stories like this that I'm glad the FCC is
     not in charge of testing any more.
     
     Let's face it, 90% of us are nervous when we sit
     down to take a CW test. Playing games like this
     doesn't make things any easier. I guess there's
     a "civilized" way to give the exam (making the
     examinee feel at ease), or there's the old way
     of intimidation. As for me, I want to see people
     use and enjoy CW, not fear and dread it.
