At the examination, doctor saw me wearing a mask, and before any presentation, just bluntly sent:
Doctor: "Why are you using a mask?"
Me: "This week Ive been sick with flu"
Doctor: "Did you do covid tests?"
Me: "I couldnt find the tests in time"
Doctor; "Ok, leave and wait at lobby"
After I processed what was happening (I was there for my new job exam and the doctor told me to leave!), somehow I managed to recover my composure and humbly answered:
Me: "Yes, sir"
Later on, my mind started to make sense of it: maybe he just wanted to do the paperwork alone instead having someone coughing around. So I simply accepted what happened. But started to feel like the doctor could simply said: "the candidate has failed", then the offer would be over for me. So, I decided to wait more 20 minutes before trying to reason with him.
Luckly, after 10 mins or so, he called me back, and the examination went smoothly.
For the dental exam, though, I warned the receptionist I was sick, and dentist is different than a doctor that will just check some paper. And asked if she wanted to reschedule the exam.
After some intense discussion in the background, the receptionist told me to go home, and that they would send me a new date for the dental exam. It was supposed to be 10 days from now, enough time for me to recover, I hope.
Again I humbly accepted and left. Kinda stressing event because I got sick just in such important week, and I couldnt recover in time for the work exams.
Now back to rest. This week was entirely lost.
