“Every - EVERY - bureaucratic agency and department in this state is completely effed up”

It always blows my mind with DMV’s. All you have to do is double the staffing, maybe by doubling the hours, or moving some backroom work off-site and you’d be a politico HERO to your state...and at far less cost than dumping more money into Newark, for example. But no one ever does...

Bob, as you probably know, Texas' DMV has been doing it by appointment only since early June. It took me 3 weeks to get an appointment, and I renewed my license a couple of days ago. The office I went to was running 90 minutes behind schedule, but they were pretty well organized. They kept everyone outside apprised of the situation, so that people could stay in their cars, rather than wait outside in long lines.

It was a lot better than the day last year I took my son in for his license. It took us over 8 hours from start to finish.
