Look, the DMV is a necessary evil. Like flossing or paying taxes. But it doesn’t have to be a nightmare. Live by the website. Use the phone number as a last resort. And when you do call, remember that you are not alone.
Every single person in Richmond has had the exact same experience. They’ve stared at that number, pressed “0” frantically, and hummed along to the hold music. You are part of a great, shared story of bureaucracy. A cultural milestone, if you will.
So, go on. Tackle that driver’s license renewal. Face that registration renewal like a champion. And if you hit a wall, just remember: my coffee is always here. And so is that number. Good luck, my friend. You’re going to need it. But you’ve totally got this.
