Thanks for that advise Macboydog
But we all do a good job anyway, the roads are a safer place because we make them that way, not VOSA. Now we all have a job to do, but some people in VOSA go all out to play god with testers because they "VE's" have maybe better training than testers "one" day every five years?
I personnally don't think anybody in VOSA is any different than any tester out here. It seems you must have just retired, or moved on or just lost your job to come out with your recent statements?
Now i have over 25 years in service and am a graduate + educated man, I make mistakes like the next man, but i don't go out with venim like some VE's, who I am lead to believe truth or not, are nothing more than ex bus drivers, or ex mot testers themselves, who have completed a BTEC National and now play GOD?
A part of a VE's job was to council and advise testers, not go out and punish them. My last VE has been changed because of his attitude towards me, why would VOSA spend all this time, money and effort setting up a National computerisation system to ensure consistency between testers, then my local VE tell me he does not agree with me because I don't leave him room for council and advise?
It appears to me that VOSA don't want testers to do the job right, but would rather them do it wrong so they can justify their jobs?

Having spent years and years as a VE and now finally out of the rat race. I read with dismay that Testers are still getting disciplined unfairly.
OK some deserve a kicking for not doing what they were trained to do.
So listen. I shall say this only once........
When challenged by your friendly VE on a disciplinary matter. KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.
Listen but defer any reply until you have discussed the matter with someone with experience of officialdom.
Read your Testers Guide.. No not the manual... It's the book that details the number of points you can get for missing testable items etc.
VOSA employees are not GODS, but some still think they are. These types can be discipline as well, by using the complaints procedure.
Be nice to your VE, It's a bloody awful job these days. They get a kicking from the VOSA managers, because those in charge never visit the coalface for fear of looking stupid.
You have been told............... Good luck.
