prints

Mentioned it a few days ago. Get fingerprinted, take the prints down the hall and get fingerprinted again. You’ll see two charges on the receipt. The first one was $34 to dip my index finger on an ink pad and she gave me a strip cut from a brown paper towel you find in the restroom.

For $11 more they were able to digitally scan all of my fingers into a computer and I didn’t need ink. And if I’m digitally scanned into a computer, why do they need a blurred single print at the other office? Oh, because it’s 99% profit.

Here’s another thing: the Police Department collects $116 for the City Planning department. I asked if I could go pay them personally and I was told no. The Police Department has to collect that money and disperse it for the City Planning Department.

Why can’t there be a single office to collect all city fees? There were many more frustrations with this, but I can’t complain all the time. I need to eat too.
