I was so happy when the pandemic hit and the second part of a qualification I was doing could be remotely proctered - everyone from professionals to crack addicts were taking tests of some sort at the same time at the test centre.

My concentration broke when the crack addict picked up the monitor and smashed it on the ground and stormed out, im not sure it they were doing a Cisco qualification or a driving test, but I dont think it was going well.

How did you know the person was addicted to crack?

Guess who sold him the crack.

Not the person you're replying to, but...

Of course there are other reasons they might act that way, but "crack addict" is a sometimes just shorthand for a person who's acting and looking a certain way.

Could've been a jenkem connoisseur, but still apparently having a bad day.
