I always have funny thoughts while waitin online at the unemployment office. Today I’m here on Billy’s behalf, I’m just here to keep him company while he waits. But on to the random thoughts…
1.) Waiting here makes me feel like Destiny’s Child ” Say my name, say my name…” That was probably cuter in my head rather than out loud.
2.) There is this old white man working here that has grey hair and a mustache. He looks like a cross between Mark Twain, Alex Trebeck, Colonel Sanders, and Orville Redenbacher *giggles* (yes I had to look up how to spell the popcorn dudes name). Oh oh; with a touch of Wilfred Brimley. He’s truely an ugly old man.
3.) There is this ‘latino’ (bare with me I have to guess at this point, there are more nationalities here than a farmers market) guy here and he totally has a faux hawk to turns into a mullet in the back. It’s hilarious! I do like his shirt and pants, but dude there is no party back there.
4.) Speaking of celebraty look-a-likes; we have also seen Sammy Davis JR and Florida Evans (from Good Times, I seriously can’t remember her real name and with no service I can’t look it up). Now all I need are George and Weezey and we’ll have a new sitcom!
5.) I’m not scrolling back up to add this but I totally just noticed the mullet guy with nice clothes has the ugliest shoes. He’s wearing a black t-shirt and nice black jeans with white cow-boy boots. Which does indeed confirm the ‘Latino’ question from earlier.
6.) And there is Al Bundy. He must’ve given up shoes for government work.
7.) Someone sitting around me smells like fruitloops.
8.) They’re playing Willy Wonka in the ‘drop your brats off here’ room. I hate that movie, both versions too. It always creeped me out as a kid. I don’t want to have to listen to the songs from it out here. Pure Imagination my ass.
9.) FYI it’s about 2 degrees above seeing your own breath in here. The air conditioning is nice but my joint are starting to hurt. We’ve been in here waiting for 3 hours now.
10.) I’m going to have to eat an airborne tablet when we get home. I’m sure being exposed to this place for this long can kill. Prolly get swine flu, bird flu, aids, who knows what else.
11.) Hahahahaha! I’m shocked I can still find thins to notice after this long. This little Indian boy at the table next to us is playing his Nintendo DS and he keeps mumbling “giggidy giggidy goo.” it’s like being in an episode of Family Guy.
God I hope they call Billy’s name soon I’m freakin starving! Oh and I won’t get to post this till we leave here so it’ll be running a little behind. I have no cellphone reception in here, although everyone else seems to. So hopefuly by the time you read this I will have eaten and won’t be gnawing on the random person next to me’s leg anymore.
4.5 hours was the whole wait time.

4.5 hours? That seems good for a government office. I’ve been waiting over 8 weeks to hear back anything about my GI Bill from the VA.

I’m so glad you commented! Yea it wasn’t a horrible wait as far as government agencies go. I spent two days at the DMV to get my learner’s permit. Waited all day the first day only to finally get called after the cut-off time for testing. They let me fill out all the paperwork though and come in the next day with no wait in line, but still.
