I came for driving lessons and now I'm in a terrible mood
I drove for about two months 10 years ago and then quit, and it's been 10 years since I last drove. I came to a driving school to start driving again.
On the first day, the instructor was very kind and gentle, but on the second day, it was a middle-aged female instructor, and I don't know why she was so irritated with the student; it really ruined my mood.
Of course, regardless of my past experience, I consider my driving skills to be below average.
That's why I came to learn, but since I've only been back at it for two days, she got extremely annoyed when I turned the steering wheel strangely during reversing or U-turns.
At first, I was just embarrassed and laughed it off, but after the third or fourth time, I got a bit annoyed, so I replied with a slight smile,
"Why are you getting so irritated? haha"
Also, I don't know the roads very well myself, but she kept telling me to decide where to goㅋㅋ The instructor on the first day would guide me the right way as long as I mentioned a direction, and even helped me finish the route well.
But today, even after I mentioned a direction, she kept asking me in the middle of driving, "Where are you going to go?"
She even said she has a poor sense of direction herself, but I don't get how someone with no sense of direction can be a driving school instructor... It's like she's proud of being a driving instructor who gets lost.
And then, we were in a situation where we had to turn right at a traffic light/crosswalk, and she told me to turn right without noticing a person crossing the street on the front right. When I said, "Uh, there's someone in front,"
About a minute later, she must have felt awkward herself,
and said,
"You see better than I do, haha"
I was so speechless, seriously.
It was absurd even when the lesson started; she's an instructor here but doesn't even know the name of this neighborhood.
When it was time for the lesson, the academy called me, so I went out.
The neighborhood is called Ibaek-ri, and when she asked me where I live, I told her it's a village very close to here, but she didn't know.
So I replied, "It's close to Ibaek-ri, it doesn't take long,"
and she goes,
"Oh, is this Ibaek-ri?"
I mean, where on earth does she think she is working? It's absolutely ridiculous.
