Anyhow I went to the log in page put my info in correctly and after hitting the "LOGIN" button it tells me: "You Must Be Logged-In to do That!" What?! I think I felt an aneurism! You have to be Logged-In to log in?! What the hell kind of crap is that? The button even changes to "Logging In" after a click it only to give me a GIANT red error box above the sign in prompt telling me some damned non-sense. The fact I have to use MySpace for work is depressing enough, now I have to deal with their shitty bugs too?!
From: Tia Marie Date: 21:06 on 12 Jun 2007 Subject: I hate you UI Designer at Prove It! I'm currently on the horrible road to job hunting. One company in particular is having me take "aptitude" tests from this site proveit.com in order to "prove" I am as proficient on certain softwares as I have claimed to be. That is totally fine with me. However, the "Virtual software" Java applet sucks. The user interface for the tests for the Microsoft office programs is by far the worst and most hateful shit I have ever touched. You can only launch it from IE or Netscape. Also when testing it will ONLY except standard answers. Like clicking the [B] icon for bold to change the font instead of the shortcut key. When I do try an alternative method (or the method that isn't considered right by the test's standards) it interrupts me with a pop up saying "Are you finished with this question?" and gives me the option to say "repeat question" which starts me brand new (if I were in a menu or something a few options in I'd be back at start and have to retrace a multistep process) or I can say yup I'm done. I hate you UI Designer. You may seem to think that making these tests more frustrating to us unemployed non-programmer types is funny, but I find it sadistic and I hate you and your entire company and your shitty UI. --Tia
