And bureaucracies being the same no matter where you go, I can't help but picture that this scene has played out at least once:


"Sir, this is the 'V' line, but your form says you're an 'F,' so you need to be in the next line over."

"But when I got here, they told me this is the line I was supposed to be in. I've been waiting for over two hours to be seen!"

"Sir, I don't know who told you that, but your form clearly says you're supposed to be in the 'F' line, so I need you to move aside so I can help the next person in line."

"THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?! I WAS THE RIGHT HAND OF CHARLAMAGNE HIMSELF!!!"

"Alright, sir, I'm on break. *slaps down 'Back in 5' sign and walks away*"
