The Colorful Work World
Ch. 31 Tests and After Tests

The computer turned on then I opened every application requested by the attendant. If you are accustomed to doing CBT (Computer Based Test), it should be familiar with this step. That is why it is so important that science uses computers for today. It can be dangerous if how to open the application and how to use the mouse just do not know.

"The time you will have for the test is 90 minutes and it starts now."

The sound of a mouse click filled the room. Because all test questions were multiple choice, most participants did not touch their keyboards. Only the mouse works hard at the moment. Hopefully the keyboard is not envious of not being used.

‘So it's like this anyway.’ Each problem has a different level of difficulty. The material is also different. But broadly speaking they assess the basic abilities of each participant. Such as counts, English skills, and other basic skills.

So far there has been no difficult problem until I meet questions about the organization of this place. Unfortunately because I have not studied further, I only answer based on feeling alone. Using the tang ting tung formula who is lucky.

Because the multiple choice is at least the true possibility is still there even though choosing randomly. After all there is no reduction in points' if the wrong answer. No problem answering at first. The true percentage is still there.

Fortunately, the question of organization is not too much. Probably only about 5 points. That's why broadly speaking, I was able to complete this test quite well.

Without feeling the time goes on. I've finished the test even though there's still time left. Than I got out quick. I chose to be more thorough and check back on the answers I filled out. Fortunately, this test allowed me to do just that. From what I heard, there is a CBT test that can only answer once and should not go back to the previous question.

I checked my previous answers one by one slowly. Maybe there is a wrong click or the answer is still dubious. I do this until the test time is over.

*Tin tong*

"Time is over, please let the participant out of the room. Don't forget to check the next test announcement. Can be seen through the official website of the company." Said the officer while checking the participants have logged out or not one by one.

All the participants in the room came out in an orderly manner. I went out of the room with Sarah.

"What about you Sarah? Want to have lunch together?" Gathering courage, I invited Sarah to lunch together. Because there are so many things I want to talk about.

"Thank you for taking me out to eat together, but I still have other business. Next time, yes."

"All right then." I smiled at Sarah and we walked together to the parking lot.

Unfortunately the attempt to ngajak eat after gathering the intention was unsuccessful. But no need to worry, we are not too close either. It's possible that after this test meeting, we won't see each other again.

After that, we went home in our own vehicles. Before I left, I looked back at the test room. I remembered that my data as a test taker was quite strange.

Other participants have complete identities such as school of origin, city and date of birth, and other personal data information. But only my own personal data is just a name. This is because the documents I sent did not reach the superior.

'hmmm. I hope I can get into this place. Although with a little help from acquaintances, it does not guarantee that I can enter this place.' I went to the restaurant first before returning to my grandmother's house.

It is located in the middle of the road but not far from home. Chicken is the main menu of this place. It was clear what I would order if I came to this place. Of course with chili just being, I do not really like spicy food.

After the message, I waited first while taking a drink. Surely I sit in an empty place because it is a bit uncomfortable to eat with strangers. But such situations rarely occur. But who sits with a beautiful girl? who would reject this situation. I'm glad to be willing to do that if I get the chance.

"Order for Ray." There was the voice of the cashier with a loud scream.

I immediately stood towards the cashier table to take the order. The chicken I received was quite large and looked delicious. Looks like this is my upper thigh, my favorite part of the chicken.

If you do not know, chicken is usually sold to several parts. There are lower thighs, wings, upper thighs, and chest. At least that's the basic division that is usually used. But there are also other special divisions that I do not know about. For example, the claw is usually sold separately from the chicken package. Usually made soup into soup plugs or the like.

While taking the sauce, I returned to where I was sitting earlier. Because it is spicy, I quickly spend the existing drink. But no need to worry, because the drinks in this place model Refill for free. Moreover, the drink is sweet tea so you can be satisfied to drink in this place. But be careful, if most can be diabetes.

I don't know how many times I go back to the drinking place to fill an empty glass. Maybe this time at the restaurant only I often go back and forth to pick up drinks quickly.

The drinks I refill are not too much. Probably only about 2 or 3 cups. Usually a place like this is perfect for gathering friends. Because you can talk casually while drinking if your throat starts to dry.

Besides this place, I usually go to Japanese restaurants to eat with friends. Because my friend likes food from the land of Sakura. Maybe I'll take him if I get a chance.

After eating, I went back to rest. Grandma and Bude asked him about the test this time. I answered confidently that I had made it through it well.

While waiting for the night, I played as usual until my eyes were tired from sleepiness.

Who would have guessed? turns out I'll meet my teacher's friend tomorrow at Jogja. An unplanned meeting.

*Hurday meeting*

"Ray, there's a friend of yours! Let's go downstairs"

'who's coming?' my question is in my heart.

I walked into the living room. Since it was located on the first floor, I had to go down the stairs first before I could get to that place.

"Eh, I have Ray"

"Pak Ampad, again accreditation in Jogja yes."

The person I met was Mr. Ampad. He's a teacher of TKJ just like me. Before I went to Jogja, I heard that I was doing accreditation in Jogja. The training this time was conducted for several months in this city.

I didn't think he'd stop by here. Initially, Mr. Ampad wanted to visit my budeku who used to teach at my place of work (different from bude who had problems with me). His name is Bude Susi.

But because I happened to be here, I attended their meeting and talked about many things. Especially about teaching experience and accreditation.

Mr. Ampad gave a lot of questions to Bude Susi. Because this Budeku has been accredited and has run the same test.

After being satisfied to chat a few minutes, Mr. Ampad said goodbye because he had to go to another place. I also prepared to leave after all the guests left. Because I will meet my friend who is still in Jogja.

*Lunch hours*

Unlike the previous dining, this time the restaurant has a Japanese theme. I ordered ramen at this place. With cold ocha standard drink. There are a lot of ramen menus in this place. Both of these menus are standard in Japanese restaurants. Not the Japanese restaurant name if there are not both of these menus.

Ramen is a Japanese food. If you know the Naruto series. I am no stranger to this food. In addition to ramen, there are also several other similar shaped foods called soba. But Soba and Ramen are different. If I know, their difference lies in the thickness of the noodles. Buckwheat is thicker than ramen.

While ocha itself we also know in Indonesia by the name of Japanese tea. Unlike most tea in Indonesia which is actually sweet. This tea usually has a tasteless taste, does not use sugar. It's like drinking bitter tea in our red and white country.

My friend arrived on time as usual. His name is Gusti, he was my younger brother in college.

He has mature skin and wears glasses. He usually wears a jacket when traveling, just like he wears this time. The jacket with the trousers were all dark in color. Match the skin color he has.

Gusti also wore a shirt behind his jacket. After ordering food and drinks, we talked about a lot of things.

"Where are you, healthy.?"

"Alhamdulilah, how are you? Are you going to graduate already ?

Gusti is about to graduate. Probably by the end of this year. But most likely I will not be able to stop by Jogja at that time. Because there are teaching assignments and also the cost to Jogja is not that cheap for private teachers like me.

I'm a bit bad because at the time of graduation he was present at the time. Gusti himself did not dispute that.

We have the same hobbies, things that smell Japanese. At the time of college, we often went to events together. Meet on the road then together go to the event.

Maybe almost 10 more events we went together. Our initial meeting was when he took an Islamic religious assistance class. At that time I became Gusti's assistant.

After the assistance was completed, we accidentally met at a Japanese event. Since that meeting, we've been together a lot. I don't know if we'll see each other again or not after he starts work.

"This is the order, two ramen .. and two ocha. Enjoy it."

Our order has come so we end our talks first. Ramen this time is very tasty, although there is an issue that ramen in this place uses pork oil. But I think the ramen in this place is the most delicious. I hope what I hear is not true. Because this place is my subscription to eat ramen when in Jogja.

Surely I also add sambal according to the needs. Because it is more delicious to eat ramen with a spicy sensation.

We continued talking when the food was finished. The conversation we had was not much when we were enjoying the meal. But pretty much what we talked about afterwards, maybe almost about 1 to 2 hours we chatted.

"Huh, what a great conversation. I used to be gus, afraid of the night. If you do not stop here, do not finish chatting.” I said as I got out of my seat.

Following my movements, Teguh also stood up and said "Yes, be careful on the road. Later if you want to gather in pm aja mas."

After parting ways, we went back to our homes. Gusti went north while I went south.

If you go to Jogja. Be prepared if people here always use the North direction when showing the way. Because if in Jogja, there is Mount Merapi as the benchmark of the North.

So that people here more often use that benchmark as a guide. Fortunately there is already google maps so it is rarely stray if on the road. But there is no harm in getting used to asking the way to people around. Who knows if you met someone because of that.

It's great to see Gusti this time. Hopefully we can meet him again on another occasion.
