I will admit that the NY steward (no longer there) who first licensed me didnt require me to take a test. He said, "How long have you worked as an assistant for Jerkens?" I said, "almost 6 years". He said that's enough for me, get workers comp insurance and we will give you a license.

Not to mention the hundy you slipped him..
