    Not shabby at all, at all! Congrats to you.

    I'd taken an upholstery cleaning certification course several years ago and I wasn't too happy with one of my scores (it, like your test was broken down into catagories) and remarked to one of my co-workers about it. His reply was that he'd never been asked by a client what he scored on the cert tests and that passing was good enough. I was taken aback because for me passing wasn't enough. I wanted to be absolutely certain that I understood what I was doing. I always did hate microscopic fabric identification but I got better at it with time to the point I could identify Hatian cotton by eyeball, much to that co-workers chagrain after he ruined a sofa made of the awful stuff even after he looked at it through a hand 'scope. There is some justice, I guess....

    Positively smart! Congratulations. No doubt it's all down to your Special Feline Supervisor "helping" you study.

    Welshie, I have absolutely no plans to wait until someone asks me how I did on any part of the exam. I'm building it into my resume, so they get the info without asking. Modesty is getting me nowhere in the job hunt.

    Congratulations! Those employers would be crazy NOT to take your applications seriously.
