Why oh why oh why oh why do little things like keyboard shortcuts have to differ between Mac & PC?
Like “jump back one word” vs “jump back one page”?
I only ask, because, say, for example, you’re taking an online test, and the system is set for a single attempt. Well, when you hit the wrong combination and it jumps back a whole page, the system locks you out as if you’d submitted the test.
Imagine doing something so unutterably stupid when you were only halfway through the test.
Imagine what a complete fuckwit idiot you would feel like. Especially if you were the Project Manager for the office that oversees and administers the system.
Just imagine how stupid and irritated you’d feel right now. And what a bowel-looseningly cringing and fawning email you would have to send to the Head Instructor begging to be let back in over the weekend so you could finish said test.
Oh. Ouch. I hope the Head Instructor (is that like Head Boy in Harry Potter?) was accommodating.
We’ll find out in the next couple of days… still kicking myself and cursing a system that relies in saved form data…
