Gee, another 'satisfied customer!' No, this scenario is not unique to Australia, or probably any place else for that matter! Gotta love that bureaucracy, along with all the red tape . . .

Sounds like what I have to do to get my drivers license renewed because I once had petite-mal seizures that never once incapacitated me or my driving abilities because my Doctor once filled out a form in 1998, a form they have never lost or forgot, like they do my information, or the information my other Doctors have provided on a yearly basis that say I no longer have seizures.

Even worse: they teach how to do this in college around here.
It's called Public Administration. There are master's degrees in it. We may not be up with some countries in math and science, but we're at the top of the heap when it comes to bureaucratic bullsh*t...

Yeah, that happens here in the United States. I remember Andy Rooney on 60 Minutes saying, and I am paraphrasing, "The Cenus asks how much I make. Go down the hall and ask the IRS."
