Ok...maybe not the 'worst'...but working at the Secretary of State (Michigan's motor vehicle department) could be quite stressful...even your own family members came in hating you because of the ridiculous lines!! Once you throw into the mix the fact that half the time there I was out on the road with new drivers, testing their driving skills...ugh! The young kids were great, good reflexes, fresh out of driving school...then there were the elderly ladies (no offense anyone..I'm one now!). For some lame reason, their kids thought that it would be a good idea for mom to get a drivers license since dad was no longer around. Do you have any idea how it feels to be in a car with a person that has had one driving lesson from her son...and find yourself in rush hour traffic facing the wrong way??? I won't even talk about the people that didn't speak English..the only requirement was that they understood the road signs. Trust me, the line between church and state was crossed...this state employee was definitely praying!
