Bureaucracy
Using a procedure in the horrible, horrible, horrible, heart of the city of Buenos Aires.
I take a number and tell me I have to wait a while.
A quick calculation of (x-call time per person / good humor of the staff) gives me about 45 minutes waiting.
Walk out, turn on a robust and hopefully with a comatose patient.
finish the cigarette and went into the minute screaming my number. Twenty-five
Officer ... veinticiinco ...¡¡¡ veinticiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinco!
Eu-Good morning. Officer-
Twenty-five? Eu
"Yes, but my friends call me Nico. Twenty-five is for strangers.
Officer "Let's see ... give me the number. Eu
"Hello, good day.
Officer "Hello. Eu
"My name is twenty-five Have you come here much?
Officer-Do you have everything? Eu-
Yes, here it is.
The next official yells "veintiseeeeeeisssss."
Eu-You know I read the other day in one of those science magazines?
Officer-... Eu-
seems that in Japan, they have machines that are like a visor with some dots that are illuminated to form numbers.
Officer-...
Eu-So ... what they do is to connect the viewer a few buttons you ... look how crazy right? One for each official, all you have to do is press the button and small dots lighting up the number below.
Officer-... Eu-Clear
they live in a bureaucracy. Not like here.
Officer-... Eu
"Poor people do not?
