Do not read this letter if you are looking for a laugh.

Last February, somewheres between 70 to 100 bagrut testers showed up for the 
briefing in Givat Shmuel to find that their registration by computer had not 
worked.

Due to a Marvad system error they were not on the list of Bagrut Markers.

There were no materials for them, and , far worse, no papers to mark.  For 
those who had just traveled 3 hours,  it was a nightmare.

There was no appology from the Marvad; no attempt to alert the teachers in 
time (we do live in a blessed age of communications), and no attempt to 
rectify the situation ( like pay  workers an hour overtime so that markers 
from far away could get papers to mark).

Anyway, checking led into Purim, into Pesach, into bagrut scramble , and I 
never did send out a letter of complaint.

Well, I just sent it.

If you were one of those angry Bagrut testers, even if you took it all 
calmly, please write to me and I'll send you a copy of my letter to Ms Judy 
Steiner, so that you can make your voice heard as well.
