I hope this doesn't constitute an NDA violation :-) Since it's
not about the test itself, I think I'm fairly safe. Also, it's
possibly quite minor, but is the sort of thing that could help on the
day:
When you get your lab confirmation and it invites you to tell Cisco
if you are "handicapped or have special needs", you should probably
tell them about dietary requirements.
I'm a vegetarian, but didn't imagine this was exotic enough to
constitute a "special need". On the day in Brussels, it was so hard to
tell whether the items at lunch were or weren't vegetarian that I had
one safe-looking roll, and some bananas and walnuts.
Second time round, I've emailed in advance saying I have a special
need. They appear to have initially interpreted this as a complaint
that the food at my first lab was unsanitary or unwholesome, or
something. I've attempted to clarify that I only want vegetarian items
to be labelled if already present, or provided (and identifiable) if not.
I think we now understand each other. They've said that bringing a
packed lunch _may_ be easier for everyone. I think I'll do that just
in case.
