Title: Re: Inappropriate behaviour during poly

Neko6,

Sounds like someone who is doing something obnoxious and you find offensive and bothersome.  I don’t know your status with this agency, which is to say I don’t know if you passed, did not pass, are still being considered or have been DQed.

Put yourself on the professional high road regardless of your status.  At some point, sit down with the examiner one-on-one, and explain to him what you observed and why you found it offensive.  Be professional and polite.  Make a memo of your meeting and keep it.  That way if you hear of additional, similar behavior in the future, you will have a record of what transpired.  If your examiner is a professional, he will listen to what you say and hopefully evaluate what he is doing.  He might not realize he is doing it.  Over the years I have listened to people I have tested and sometimes they tell me things I had not thought about, and make adjustments accordingly.  Sometimes I listen to them and make no adjustments at all.  It is a tough decision, but if you get into law enforcement (I assume that is what we are talking about) you will be faced with tough decisions throughout your career.  To make it easy, look inside yourself and “do what you know is right.”  If you don’t say something, how are you going to feel about yourself in the future.  Try to resolve problems at the lowest level.  If you aren't satisfied with his response or reaction, you can always take it a step hight.  Good luck.
