Jebus what a hassle. I got pulled over for going 4 over the other day . Well I had spilled a bunch of Prolink in my glove compartment (leak in bottle) like 2 weeks ago which saturated every piece of paper in there including my insurance varification. Needless to say, prolink smells like ass so I removed all saturated pieces of paper. The cop let me off with a warning and a ticket for not having my ins verication that I could "easily resolve". He was generally very nice and cool except that he pulled me over for going 4 over :mumble:.
Anyway, so I had 48 hours to go the the damn courthouse and show them Ins varification. But the Ins company said 1 week until it will get to me (in the mail). So I called the number for the courthouse to see of they would take a fax... they put me on hold for 10 min at least and then gave me another number to call who did the same thing. So I called the final number only to get an answering machine. The people that gave me the number just told me to keep calling because they would answer if they had a moment of rest from their super busy jobs. So I started blowing up their phone with my cell. I must have called them 50 times in a row, hanging up on their machine and then calling again. See, I needed to get there in an hour because they are only open from 10-12AM and from 3-5PM... really convenient hours wouldnt you say since I work from 8-5 :mumble:. Anyway, I walk through security (which is FAR more robust than last time I was there... Like airport security). When I got to the office that I had been calling over, and over, and over, it was 3 women, sitting at their desks all talking to eachother. Not a single phone ringing, not a single piece of paperwork being filled out, just 3 women talking about the other ones hair. WTF?!?! I thought they were always slammed with work, barley enough time to answer their phones. . Glad to see my tax dollars are at work paying 3 women in charde of doing the work of 1/2 a person.
At least I got it resolved. It took 3 seconds to do what I had to drive clear across town, spend at least 45 minutes on the phone, and $3.00 in parking to do.
I give the whole system a for being completely inefficient on 2/2/2005
