I was daydreaming about going into my local Motor Vehicle Department Office wearing a black shirt with "DOGE" on the back of it just to see the reactions.
Just a daydream, tho. 😂

DO IT!!! 😂😂😂

When I had a business many years ago, we moved our location. Reno in the new spot was simple -- 1 toilet and 1 sink (out of 2) had to be removed, and a wall had to be built. Had to buy several permits from the city. Work was done quickly and was inspected (each inspection carries a charge $$) but CO (certificate of occupancy) never issued.
SO --
I went to the city to find out why the delay.
Clerk said "You still need your plumbing final."
"Plumbing FINAL?? They only removed a sink & toilet and it was inspected -- if I had ANOTHER inspection, what's he gonna say -- 'Yep, still removed." 🤦
I was frustrated 😠 and what I thought in my head came out my mouth --
"You need to get you a big ol' jar of vaseline and set it right here on the counter!"
The ppl in line behind me were smiling and nodding their heads up n down as I walked out. 😆😆
I got my CO.

😃😂😂😂😂

I went into Motor Vehicle yesterday, paid for a (fake & fraudulent) title on a used truck so at least I have some proof of ownership in this MATRIX. Then the fat Jabba The Hutt other side of the counter said, "You'll receive your title in a few weeks in the mail." I looked at him and asked, "Is there any way I can get it today?"
Jabba rolls his eyes, types three keys on his keyboard, slowly gets up, waddles over to the counter & stands by the printer for about 15 seconds, walks back with a brand new title & hands it to me with a scorn.

15 seconds + a key stroke & he wanted to make me wait for weeks after waiting almost an hour for my number to be called.

They aren't here to help us. They are here to impede our productivity & steal our money with their fake & fraudulent systems that utilize fake constructs like "permits" & "vehicle titles" that only represent the real car title THEY are holding from dealerships - the Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin. 😡 THEIVES!

similar situation with DMV today to replace a sticker that I got 2 days ago that was too defective to us. She was going to charge me again. I was super nice and said I would pay for it but if so I wanted to speak to the manager so I could get a manager's name when i write a letter to the tax collector (who you cannot reach by phone or email) for beinc cgared $36 for a sticker that I just paid for 2 days ago that was defective. I even brought in my license plate to show her.

After a half hour wait, the manager did not come over to my window and she gave me the new sticker for free.

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
