DMV Adventure, WSF gets Schooled

Last week went into the local DMV office to get a printed copy of my driver's record. It can't be, for whatever reasons, done online. The lady informed me the wait was two+ hours. However, I could make an appointment online. Went online, and the first available appointment was  four working days away. Muttering, I went ahead and made an appointment.

Yesterday arrived a few minutes before my scheduled time. The place was packed. After my third attempt at using the touch screen, I received my ticket. While checking my number, it was called!!
Five minutes and $2.20 later, I walked out the door with my print out. Didn't even have time to work up a proper snit.

Although it pains me to say it, sometimes working with the system works.

LOL. The DMV in Wyoming gave me headaches and was TERRIBLE. Nothing to wait 4 hours. Indiana is a piece of cake.

When I was running off site sales, the only place to get a permit was the main zoo at 18th & Pierce in Denver. The dealer window wasn't too bad but the unwashed masses would be there for hours.

I'd consider that a MAJOR win! :-)

It was better than a sharp stick in the eye to be sure.

There was always one or two uniforms there to keep order.Main office for all the reinstatements, DUIs, etc. were handled.
