Yippee! Gotta take the HazMat test. Start a new job on Mon passin' gas for a living.
DMV sucks.
Always a fun way to start the day!
Packa lunch, snacks, and maybe dinner.
Do you get extra points for pedestrians? How about Protestors?
I just make gas, what are you doing exactly?
DMV? What is that? Oh you mean the 4th circle of hell! Good luck!
Good luck on the new job! I was told once by a guy who passed gas that he always brought along a change of clothes because sooner or later you're going to forget to shut off one of the valves and soak yourself
don't forget either your border patrol or INS hat. funny how fast the line moves then[Swim]
Make sure you don't smoke or light any matches if that happens[Beer]Quote:

At the DMV office on Mississippi and Tejon at 0930....#273. #208 now being served. At 1130 they called #220. 10 work stations in that office. 3 were manned. Computers go down at about 1135. Guy tells me the Northglenn office isn't very busy.
I head up to Northglenn. They're busier than the office I just left. I wait there 20 minutes and 1 number is called.
I drive back to MS office. They're now calling #248. I still have #273 so I sit and wait. And wait. Finally call my number at 1458. Takes me 15 minutes to take the HazMat written test. I place it in the basket at 1517. At 1550 I get called to the counter and my test is graded. Missed 2. Get sent to wait for the cashier and walk out of DMV at 1622.
I love seeing my state tax dollars (not) at work.
My fiance was at the DMV for several hours just like that. If it wasn't for the computers going down (and most of the people leaving) she would have been there nearly as long as you. What's worse is I sent her to the wrong DMV. She waited for like 3.5 hours just to be told that she had to go some where else. There wasn't enough time in the day to finish up at the other place.
Yeah...once I got back to the MS office so many people had left it actually picked up the pace to almost glacial speeds.
When she got to 269 it was a sweep. No one answered so it went right thru to me at 273.

Good luck!
I spent one of the longest days of my life at Denver MEPS...July 2, 1979.
Spent all day at the MS office I think the puters are deigned to go down.
I agree. That day was the absolute longest ever. Nov 12, 1996Quote:

I was probably in there for a total of 5 minutes.
Yeah...I saw those big signs about military in uniform. I think next time I'll raid the closet, find something that fits (does anyone still wear woodland BDUs?) and get a haircut. See if that helps...
Not that I'm aware of. The AF quit wearing them at the begining of this month, or will quit wearing them at the end of the month. But I doubt the DMV would know that. It's worth a try.Quote:

Driver's license office: A whole different experience. The people (a loosely used term) that work(barely) in that hellhole are a bunch of bitter, petty, tinplated dictators, so disappointed with the bleak existence that they have established for themselves, that they seek to take revenge on everyone that comes into their personal hell. Add to this their whole underworked and grossly overpaid attitudes, and you get to see them truly move at the speed of government.
Agree with you so much right there... it does feel like they're taking their anger with themselves and situation out on us. Meanwhile, I do all my vehicle registration and what not up in Evergreen at the Jeffco office attached to the Mtn Precinct sub-station and they're all really friendly- I think because they know 2-5 cops at any time are just down the hall and would quell any bad attitudes.Quote:

That sucks. I went in there 2 weeks ago to put an M on my license and was in and out in 10 minutes.
