Great Idea for Status Message

Post by biblefreak »

I have a grand idea for the folks over at DPS. Instead of just leaving the "Processing Application" message up until the time of license issue, they should change it up a bit. How about:

We know you are anxious, but we're working on it.

Still processing application............

We haven't forgotten about you, calm down!

Once upon a time there was a CHL license application in process........

Hey, good to see you stopped by. We are still processing your application, same as yesterday, and the day before, and the day before that..........

And maybe these:

Did you really think the status would be different from 5 minutes ago?

Does your workplace really allow internet for unofficial use?

Welcome back, you have visited 48 times today. Congratulations, this is a new record.

"Application Complete - license issued or certification active" -- haha, just kidding, it's really "Processing Application".

No change today. Tomorrow isn't looking too good either

How about?

Maybe we have lost your paperwork, maybe your paperwork is at the bottom of the pile, maybe the person working on your file went on vacation, maybe the person in the mail room hasn't made it up here yet this month, it doesn't really matter. We'll have your application finished when we are good and ready. Feel free to check back anytime you want.

p.s. Don't bother calling us. If you are looking for the department of straight answers this isn't it.
How we conduct ourselves defines us. At the end of the day we answer to ourselves. At the end of our days we answer to God.
