What a pain it is to buy a car. My coworker LK is trying to buy a car from another coworker, everyone agrees to the transaction, but the actual change of ownership involves getting a bijillion documents (certified passport, letter with witnesses and lawyer stamps, etc), going places, getting in line at each, being told you don't have the right documents, getting in line again, and getting redirected...and maybe repeat another 5 times.
We were told our driver would know where to go, so he dropped LK off at the transport office, but after a long wait in line, the person wrote down the following places she needed to go before she could come to this office:
1) Lra (government complex + form)
2) Interpol (police headquarters ) certify letter with 2 witness
3) Roadworthy (foso testing station) car inspection
4) CID (pitso ground)
5) Traffic office (maseru)
Well, if it looks like gibberish to you, it's gibberish to me too.
When I asked what we needed to get our workers permit, JB (seasoned doctor here) said we needed to get our documents sent in by the driver, and then after 3 weeks do the following:
1) Pick up file in one room of a building,
2) Pay in another room
3) Back to first room
4) Then lady with type writer will type something
5) Go to the police to pay for card
6) Cross street to white trailer to take photo and print card.
It's like the amazing race!.. but not so amazing. Anyhow, no more complaining about getting orientation stuff done at Baylor!
