Today I received a passport. For the majority of those who read blogs (and generally knows what a blog) - the event is quite commonplace. But, as usual in our post-Soviet Union, combined with the known difficulties. It is well known that no one better than the Soviet people to overcome the difficulties can not. And to such a skill is produced, there were established mechanisms, every day of his coaching. What are operating to this day.
I would not write about it, but I asked on Twitter and it became evident that all my impressions in 140 characters is clearly not vlezut. Therefore decided to unsubscribe here.
start from the beginning - from where it is I was getting a passport. I got him to the Federal Migration Service of Russia in the Tver region in the central region of Tver at the address. Erofeev, 5a. Now operates such an order in our city - the biometric passport issued in the Federal Migration Service (street Vagzhanova, 13), the usual - at the district offices. Biometric passport to receive I was not because of the eschatological horror stories, but the more prosaic reasons: did not want to pay 2,5 times more money and it was understood that in the FMS queue is always greater than in the district offices. The latter criterion is confirmed empirically by personal experience.
Branch operates from 9 to 13 and from 16 to 18 on weekdays, except for Monday. People in the queue is usually a little bit. But we can at this stage to be the second coming for 2 hours before the end of the branch, and, nevertheless, do not get to the desired window in muddy Plexiglas. This is explained as follows: pasportistki housing department, the Criminal Code, ZhEKov etc. taken out of turn. Therefore, as in the good old days Soviet times, there is a queue on the queue and the queue jump the queue. Add to this the fact that pasportistki come to the reception is not with one, two or three passports, a local trainer public nerve emerges more clearly.
I came early in the sixth, in the 17-45 wondered and whether you want to stand in the general queue to get a passport. The amazing answer is that, in general turn to stand is not necessary, because for the issuance of passports There is a separate window, but as a girl in that box there, it should be. But it is meaningless: to serve the citizens tired and pretty young woman - Lt. internal service (so badge) - still will not have time. I was standing. And waited.
manicured fingers Lieutenant internal service veering between one printer on which it is to print your documents, another printer on which it is imprinted in the passport stamped for registration and the computer keyboard, on the LCD display which clearly DOSovsky interface with a blinking cursor. She worked as a wound spring, the trajectory of hand movements was tested, I thought, thousands of hours of experience.
At 18-00, she asked all to leave, because her working day has ended. To my query about how I should be, if I go for the second time and again, do not fall into the receiving time, a female lieutenant said that she is unable to offer anything. To my question and why there are two categories of visitors from one employee FMS - pasportisty and ordinary citizens - she did not answer. Given that the unit of our government agencies looks good only in the administrative regulations on them, I would like to recall that, from what, in fact, the money she gets her allowance. But did not.
I felt sorry for her when he thought that she (and dozens of other employees FMS) sees no one and no two of angry citizens in each of its working day. That her monthly income is likely less of my nerves and she certainly spends more. That her tired and irritable person and not the first freshness jeans with low waist. And surely after such a dialogue with citizens outraged she would come home not in a happy mood. All right the following consequences of such a mood for waiting for her, and perhaps bored by his wife, mother or daughter of the household.
So I was about to leave, has come as another woman hurried and skorogovoryaschaya, which went to the window for issuing passports. I asked if he could get a passport? He replied, that it is possible, despite the 03/18 went looking for it, found was to put a stamp on my regular passport, log the details of the issuance of passports and perform other, relying on the administrative regulations, the action. Filling out a receipt, I tested the validity of passport data, thanked employee of MBF and left.
Removing three passports (civil, a new passport and old passport) thought that these an habitual, and so obscure, complexity will generally be beyond the comprehension of the average Western Europeans. For ONET not understand how this could be all - except visitors come when they want? Is not strictly signified their time? And anyway - why do they come? Is your passport they can not send mail? Realizing that a rational response these (rhetorical in Russian terms) issues are not, I removed my passport and with a sense of accomplishment went toward the house, along the way hoping do not fall under the nasty big April snow, which I have already warned followers, as I stood in the queue.
