1/23 to the DOL to get my youngest daughter her driver's permit! UGH! 3 hours! First went to the Federal Way DOL, bu NOOOO they are closed on Saturday (maybe the state saves a few dollars). So called home to have my other daughter look up an office that is open on a Saturday, off to Tacoma we go!
Welcome to the hood, 64th and Yakima Ave. About 100 people inside, we take a number and wait. Most of the first 1 1/2 hours we were sitting so no one seemed to notice. Then we were finally called up to the front. Process the paperwork and then my youngest is off to take the written. I stand at the front of the room waiting. A couple of bug eyes :shock:but that is all. She passes the written then walk to the back to get another ticket to wait again. Several glances at me and my sidearm (Sig229). After sitttng 1 1/2 hours I decide to stand while waiting for the picture to be taken. Many eyeballs, glance at me. After 15 or 20 minutes a Samoan genleman around 30 comes over and stands by us also waiting for his picture to be taken. 5 minutes later; "Are you like security?" I respond with nope, just a regular guy. I give him a pamphlet and talk for a few minutes. He says thanks. Picuters taken and we are done.
1/23 McDonalds in Fife for some fries.
