| - Honestly, not as bad as I expected!
I arrived just before they opened on a Friday (though they say the traffic is heavier on mondays and friday? I dont know), entered into the driver's license side in a herded cattle fashion, and waiting in line for the desk. After showing them that I had all my paperwork with me, I received a number and proceeded to sit... And sit a little more. After about ten minutes they mentioned the testing computers were on the fritz and they were trying to reboot them. Great. But in the end it only took me an hour to do everything, and that's a win for me!
Everyone who worked there was extremely pleasant, not sure if its the norm for them (which just seems so wrong for the DMV) or if it was because we were the first ones in. One of the women in line didn't have half the documents she needed but the clerk was truly trying to get her help by using every alternate information she might have on her or in her glovebox, even though it still didn't work out, it was nice to see her try instead of just dismissing the woman at first glance.
After living in Florida, it's a little weird having your new DL sent to your home instead of just being made on the spot, and since you can't do anything with your registration while only having your temporary license, you have to make two trips (at least) out there. Lame.
