Thanks to all the girls at the DMV


I had to spend most of the day at the DMV as my registration was up and I had some complications.

Contrary to the stereotype, everyone was very nice and polite and helpful Strangely enough they were all plus size and will be needing nice dresses and stuff for upcoming graduations and weddings and stuff....funny how that worked out.

Anyway, I want to thank them for all of their help.

I got that 7 year driver's license extension notice recently from the DMZ and I was really freaked out because 1) to get the extension you have to take an eye test, which I dreaded failing and 2) I thought the DMZ office would be a horror show. Well, maybe I lucked out but when I entered the DMZ there was no one, I mean zero people on line. I was in and out, including the eye test that was a snap, in twenty minutes tops.

But I'd still rather not see the inside of a DMZ office again.

Yikes, DMV not DMZ.

I was wondering why you would go to Korea to renew your driver's license.

I think they are a lot less crowded now that people can do a lot of the paperwork over the internet or by mail.

Also, all the out of work people can go whenever they want.

I am really glad that you didn't need to sit around and wait, but dammit, I hate it more that some government employees are sitting around waiting for customers.

Same thing happened to me the last time I was there, and I sounded as silly grateful as you, Troop. Problem was they had seven windows open with one summer intern and one regular employee at each window, and me and one other person looking for some help. That's way too many people sitting around.

I needed to upgrade my DL to a CDL so I could drive something large and heavy (a vehicle, not a relative you snarkers).

It took six, count them, six effing trips to my local DMV to accomplish this small task. And that was after I took and passed all the requisite tests.

Among other things, I had to provide a certified copy of my original birth certificate from the county of my birth, just in case someone thought I looked like an Arab, an Inuvik Eskimo, a Laplander or a Hindu.

I have lived in my home state all my life; they have my driving records for the last 46 years. WTF!!!???? Prove that I am from here???!!

I'm glad your DMV experience was warm and fuzzy. Mine were cold and shitty.

Grouchy bastard out.

Dude, you have to offer to discount some dresses to them.

Works every time.

My Man Mitch Daniels completely revamped the Indiana BMV where I can now get my license quicker than a Big Mac at the drive through.

That alone qualifies him for the Presidency.

I believe I've lost my wallet. (On my job interview.)

So I'll be doin' the DMV thing shortly.
