It's ok to say NO to security guards

have you ever been to a place where you hv to leave any personal identification documents to the security guards in exchange to a temporary visitors pass?

i have.

not once, not twice but many many times i've lost count already. there was this one time when i was working in west msia and my working pass was not ready yet, i had to leave my driving license to the guards in order to get the temporary pass for almost a MONTH. well, i could've gotten my staff pass sooner but they said the passport photo i submitted was 'improper'. i was wearing a sleeveless union jack top in that photo. i didn't quite get what is considered improper in that photo because it can easily be cropped like this

my driving license photo scanned with poor resolution scanner

so the sleeveless-ness of the shirt should not be an issue

maybe it is improper because i'm wearing union jack shirt?

maybe it is improper because my i rebonded my hair?

and speaking of rebonding, i've seen a few saloons spelling rebonding as REBOUNDING and REBORNDING. wahh... i would really love to re-born my hair ooo... heheh...

maybe it is improper because i didn't smile?

or maybe because i have half eyebrows?

or because my hair was parted in the middle?

woopsy... heheh... i'm off-topic already...

nested off-topic

you know, like nested if-then-else

if ... then{

if... then{

}

else{

}

}

else{

}

o'oh... off-topic - again...

back to my main topic

so, ya... i had recently found out that you can actually say NO to those rules - the asking for personal identification document thingy. here is a letter supposedly signed by KSU KKDN.
