Title: Going to the DMV....&*%$#^!
Post by: George on May 09, 2007, 09:44:50 AM
I need to go to the registry (in Manhattan, NY) to pick up an ID next week.

I can do it either Monday or Tuesday. I plan to go first thing in the morning, but wanted to hear if its better (in terms of waiting) to go on Tuesday?

I'd much rather go on Monday and be done with it, but I know government offices can be a nightmare on Mondays.

What do you think?

If you were in the Commonwealth, I might advise you.

But, you are not  :)

Yes, I escaped long ago.  ;D


(Though I suspect the trends in Beantown can't be that different from NYC)  :-\

Yes, I just changed it. Karl understood 'cause we're from the same hood.  :)

It's been a while, so I don't know if Tuesday vs. Monday makes any difference. Last time I went to the DMV in NY was in Brooklyn (Atlantic Ave.), which was fairly quick. 1/2 hour or so.

Lucky you're not in California! The California DMV is likely the most incompetent organization I've ever dealt with.
