Today, I made THREE trips to the DPS (driver's license place) to get my license renewed, it was the gayest thing EVER.
I spent from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. driving back and forth from my house, to the DPS, and then back to my house to get my citizenship status (visa stuff), and then back to the DPS, and then to my dad's work to get my birth certificate, and then back to the DPS.
Yeah.
And because there's always like a million people at the DPS, you take a number, wait 2 hours, only to be told "no, you're missing so-and-so document, go back before you can renew your license."
GAY!
I seriously think this lady at the dps was racist. She looks like a racist red-neck, and sounds like one too.
My license is a special kind that says "non-u.s. citizen" at the top because duh, i'm a non-u.s. citizen. I don't get what the fuss is about, but once they see those words at the top of my license, they totally freak out and pass my license all around the room, and act like as if I'm a freaking terroist. Right, me and my 105 pounds of steel. *sigh*
So yeah, usually with a regular american citizen's license, all they need is your old license, and like $20 to renew it. With me, they told me I need to show my citizenship status to make sure that I was still legal etcs. So I said ok, went back home and got it. When I came back, I got called by the racist red-neck lady, and she was all mean and bitchy with me.
racist red-neck whore: Ok, where's your social security card? Where's your birth certificate? HUH? OH OH. AND WHERE IS YOUR EDUCATION FORM THAT SAYS YOU ARE STILL IN SCHOOL???? HUHUHUHUHUH??
me: well....I'm a non-u.s. citizen so a social security # is not required.
racist red-neck whore: oh..that's right. where's your birth certificate then?
me: I forgot to bring it. But since I have my passport, is that ok? Since it shows my date of my birth, and it's probably the most reliable document since they verify everything before putting information on it??
racist red-neck whore: *smacks mouth really loudly and really impatiently* WELL. I KNOW I HAVE YOUR PASSPORT. BUT I ASKED YOU WHERE YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE IS!! WHAT IS YOUR POINT?
me: *starts to get really pissed off but supresses it* ok. I'll go back and find it, but what about the education form? I thought it was only required of minors. I'm 18, do I still need to bring you an education form? Especially because my school's already over, so where would I go to get one now?
racist red-neck whore: Go to the superintendent or something, or wait until school starts, but you need to get me an education form for sure.
me: but...you can only get your license renewed within like 2 weeks after it expires...and school starts in 3 months.
racist red-neck whore: oh well.....number 82?????? 82!!!???
OMG. I wasn't even done with her!! And she asked for the next number. BITCH. And she was sooo rude to me when I was asking her questions. what a fucking bitch.
So I went back to my dad's lab, got my birth certificate, and then I went online and looked up the main DPS office's number in Jackson, called them, and told them the scenario. And they were like " I don't know who told you that, but they definitely CANNOT ask you for your education form if you're over 18"
HAH BITCH! WHAT NOW? I WAS RIGHTTTTTTT!
So I drove back to the DPS ready for a verbal fight, cos there was no way I was leaving that place the THIRD time without a fucking up-to-date license in my hand.
And........I didn't get that lady again, this fat, nice man called my number. And he was reallly agreeable. He looked at all the documents that I AM SUPPOSED TO HAVE, not the MADE-UP-ONES BY RACIST RED-NECK WHORESSSSSSS!
Ok. I'm done with ranting. At least my driver's license picture looks ok. Thanks fat, nice man for taking a good picture. YOU ROCK! Unlike your racist co-worker. Thank you for fighting the good fight. Rock on man!!!
