dazmaz Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 WTF?? is it just me or are there more and more qualifications that are just totally pointless? why on earth would someone need a qualification for catching the bus? add that to most of the stupid things kids have to learn (and 99% will never use it) for GCSE's (algebra for a start)
1864roverite Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 And that folks is the state of the world we live in now. A tragic waste of everything
Tim Southampton Rover Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I thought you were meant to put your hand out to request the bus to stop to let you on. I guess that's why I don't have a certificate and they do. I've been doing it wrong all this time.

Kids now get qualifications for catching the school bus?? If thats the case I want one for being able to tie my shoelaces (and with double knots beat that!!), wonder if you can do a degree in that?

EDIT: or have i misunderstood you?

LeftWinger Posted August 15, 2009 Author Posted August 15, 2009 There were also certificates handed out for being able to get dressed and making a drink. I am honestly not joking.
