and wishing that I dont get qualified for what i did. here is wht he told me
"PADI tries to maintain the quality of the people it certifies, and it's people doing things like this that undermines what they are trying to do. There are numerous occasions when people have claimed to be a DM or instructor, there's been a problem and PADI get insulted for producing poor professionals - when the truth is that it's mostly unqualified people claiming skills they don't have.- I would be happy if you never get qualified as you simply don't have the maturity to be a PADI Pro "
Hi...
Lessons that I learnt from this!!!
- Never assume that all divers are great (even though i read this forum every day but I didnt convince my self that there are bad divers)
- Never depend on the LDS to check on the Qualifications, check for yourself.
- Gear up last! even if you are really fast at getting ready.
If you represented yourself as a doctor and messed up doing surgery on someone, who's fault is it? You or your hospital? Maybe both but ultimately the imposter is the one who is wrong.Think the first mistake happened when you are leading a dive and not a qualified DM.
DMT's should not be leading dives unless under direct supervision. Thereby the instructor would have/should have seen the problems which obviously started at the dive shop.
I feel more blame is due to the instructor.
