Sitting in a social security office, waiting for your number to be called so you can go as well as rest at one of the tiny windows to fulfill whatever task you needed to get done, if you brought all the necessary paperwork, is a pain.
It is painfully dull as well as seriously aggravating, however necessary in some instances.
I had to deal with one such instance recently. The office in my area opens at 9 am, as well as I arrived exactly at 9, as well as the entire waiting area was already filled. I had assumed 9 was when they first began letting people in however evidently the doors opened early to allow people to sign in as well as get their number! Because of this I was number 132, as well as 101 was just being called when I arrived, but no seats were available so I was left standing, as well as the waiting was made even worse by the air conditioning in the building. For whatever reason they had their air conditioner at full blast in the middle of winter season even though it was 32 degrees outside. It was a exhausting use of their Heating as well as Air Conditioning system; my associate and I needed the furnace to be running, not the air conditioning! I was stuck in the frigid waiting area for a little over an hour, as well as my visit only took 5 minutes once I was called. 5 minutes was all it took to get the paperwork I needed, get it filled out, as well as leave, however it took over an hour to start! I was so glad to get out of that building, with its deranged wait as well as silly air conditioning, as well as into my vehicle to head on home.
