ID? Who needs a state ID?!

Friday morning I headed out to the DMV. Stupid state of Vermont. It was starting to snow, and we had a winter storm watch out for all day friday and saturday, so I wanted to leave earlier in the morning so I wouldnt get caught in the weather. So, I finally find the place, and it's in an old school, and it looks like a prison. So I trudge in, bringing the snow in with me, and go to the front desk. I stood there for a minute, waiting, and this trollish looking lady looks at me and says "What do you want!" I told her I was there to get a state ID, and she asked if I had any ID. I told her I had an Arizona drivers license and my passport, and she said that would be ok, and hands me a form to fill out. Now, I'm not used to putting weech as my last name, so I filled it in with thompson for my last name. I went back to the front to get another one, and she points at it and says "it's right there!" she was very snippy...I definately wouldn't have hired her if I was her boss! So after I was done filling it out, I went back to the desk and got a number. When it was called, I went to the right desk, and the meanest man ever was sitting there! I gave him my little paperwork, and he asked what I wanted. I told him I was going to get a state ID, and he asked what I had to prove who I was. So, I pull out my social security card, with the last name of weech, and was trying to explain to him that my passport and AZ drivers license had my maiden name, and he looks at me and says "I'm not giving you a Vermont ID". I just looked at him, and was like "What?" So he looks at me and says that if I dont have an ID showing that I live in Vermont, he's not going to give me one. So I was like " that's what I came to get" and he told me since I have a drivers license for another state I am a resident of that state, so good news everyone! I didn't actually leave AZ! This must all be just a figment of my imagination! He was being incredibly rude, so I told him to let me finish explaining, and he just sat there with this dumb expression on his face until I got done, and then he told me the same thing! I was like "HELLO!!!" grrr....dumb Vermont government workers! I tried to tell him that the AZ drivers license wasn't even valid, since it has my old name on it, and he was like "I don't care, we will not give you a vermont ID unless you can show us and ID saying you live in Vermont".......Then he backtracked and said they would only give me a drivers license. Dumb.

I was pretty mad at this point, so I gathered my stuff up, told he guy he was very unhelpful, and walked away. I called Aaron and told him, and asked what he thought. I don't really want to give up my AZ license, since it doesn't expire til 2048, so we decided to not do anything. I went back in the office to try and explain perhaps to someone else my plight, and the mean man who didn't help me at all was sitting at the front desk! So he looks at me and says "look lady, I already told you, we are not going to give you an ID, so just leave!" Well, that REALLY made me mad, so I kind of copped an attitude with him and then left. Anyways, so now I still don't have any ID with my weech last name, and nothing proving I live in Vermont. grrr.
