After being on CS for six years now, I finally got mistaken for a worker outside of work. So excited.
My mom's car was due for inspection back in July. I noticed this when I came back from school the second week of August. I swapped cars with her one day and had it inspected while she was at work. It failed.
She finally got it repaired recently and I suggested that after I get out of work today, I could drive over to her job, swap cars, and get hers re-inspected. Got there around 4:30, just beating the rush since Tuesdays are the open late days. Gave the worker all the stuff she needed, walked to the end and waited. As the woman was giving me a new sticker for passing, this guy pulls up and the following conversation ensues:
Guy "Is this where I'm supposed to park?"
Me "Uh, is this your first time getting a car inspected?"
Guy "Yea!"
Me "Then no. You're supposed to go through the gate, get a ticket, then wait in line."
Then he just stands there staring at me. I start to get in my car, kinda creeped out that he's just staring, and he says, "Oh I thought you worked here."
Really? All the DMV workers have a specific uniform. I was wearing black dress pants and a dark purple polo. What part of my outfit reads "DMV employee"?
