Failed my first road test because my nerves completely ruined me

I'm actually pissed at myself lol.

The annoying thing is I don't even drive that bad during practice. Like I'm not perfect, but I can drive. But once the test started, I got nervous as hell and super anxious...

I literally started driving with the hazard on instead of using the left indicator properly. Then the examiner kept telling me to speed up, which made me even more stressed. After that he told me to do a U-turn at a signal, then a right turn, and I messed up the timing/braking so bad that he had to hit the brake.

Then he told me to park on the dirt side and even that was messy.

It felt like I went from "okay beginner driver" to "first day behind the wheel" in like 2 minutes.

Now I have to wait for the next month and take more lessons. But honestly now my mind is telling me I'll never pass, like no matter how much I practice I'll just panic again when the real test starts. I know that's probably not true, but right now it feels impossible and I feel kind of ashamed because it was such a stupid fail.

Just wanted to rant because damn, this one felt stupid

Salem guys,

Just wanted to ask honestly, how’s the job market these right now fi tounes ?

I’ve been in UAE for almost 4 years now, and honestly I’ve been thinking a lot about going back to for good.

I’m a senior graphic designer with 8 years of experience. Before, I worked in a few agencies in Tunisia and things were okay back then. Not perfect, but manageable.

Here, honestly things really didn’t go the way I expected. The work environment has been draining me a lot, toxic management, bad work-life balance, w barcha hajet o5ryn.. and it’s starting to affect me mentally 3allekher..

And right now the market here feels very tough. Epseically m3a l7arb mta3 Iran... Leaving without another job lined up feels risky as hell.

W bsara7a I’ve been thinking a lot… maybe it’s time to just go back home and rebuild... idk

But I honestly have no idea how things are now in.. especially in design/creative work. It's been ages since I looked it up

Would appreciate some help
