Default I just got my license

I just got home from the BMV. The test was easier than I thought it would be. During the test I started laughing because the answers were so absurd. One of the questions was like ‘What do you when a pedestrian is crossing the street?’ and one of the choices was honk and speed up.

The people who were working there were so rude. They talked with an emotionless voice. They were impatient and acted like they hated their job. They took the picture for my license when I wasn’t ready. My eyes are closed and I have this weird expression on my face.

I’m on the computer because I live in Indiana and there is nothing to do here.

Welcome to governmental offices. Get used to it, they all act like that.

Congrats. I assume it's your beginners?

If by beginners you mean learner's permit, then no. It’s just a regular driver’s license.

Gas is around $2.80-$3.10 here (Indianapolis). I seen it for $2.84 yesterday, and I thought that either I was dyslexic or the guy who puts the numbers up on the sign is.
