Yesterday, John and I went to the DMV to establish our Florida residency. I was telling John on the way to the DMV that we did not need to worry about a long wait because every time I have visited the DMV I have never had to wait more than 5 mins. As we stepped in the building we saw this....
John quickly reminded me that I have never lived in a big city until now. What a nice reminder! :)
We were handed a piece of paper with a number and was told to take a seat and wait for our number to be called. It was then I had wished I had brought something to do. As I was scanning the room in boredom, I saw many people like myself, and others that had clearly experienced this situation before and had thought ahead. After DMV stalking these people from my blue chair, I scrambled up a couple things you can do while you wait for assistance at the DMV!
#1. Play on your phone. This is an obvious one. BUT, if this is all you have it's a good option. This is how John and I passed our time. (Oh, and we snapped the following pictures too! :) )
#2. Listen to Music or Read a book!
#3. Show some skin or a tattoo! (Just kidding!) But I had to include!
#4. Play the slots! (John caught this one!) We were sitting right behind this lady and I couldn't help but laugh! This was so funny!!!
After an hour of waiting, we finally were helped. Only to be told that we did not have the correct items that were needed. I feel like this ALWAYS happens! Does this happen to you?
Luckily, we were fortunate enough that the lady who was helping us gave us a preference pass so when we came back we could zip through the line without having to wait another hour, which made the experience a little better! We were very thankful to her!
What kind of experiences have you had at the DMV?
Have you ever recieved great customer service?

Boredom=Sweet Treats!
Today was my second day off in a row and since John was working I was getting pretty ancy around the house. So.... Bentley and I decided to bake some white chocolate chip cookies and bring them to work for John and his co-workers to munch on. Needless to say this wasn't the first time we had whipped up a sweet treat for them and delivered it over, so when they found out they were quite happy. When we arrived I rolled down the window to deliver the cookies to Gary and Bentley nearly jumped out of the window with so much excitement. He loves visiting his daddy at work and I do too :)
Yummm...and of course, I had to eat some fresh cookie dough:) |
There was never a moment Bentley took his eyes off the cookies! |
The cookies turned out a lot larger than I thought they would! |
Off to take the cookies to work! |
