She’s weaponizing the soulcrushing banality of the DMV for good! Her deadpan face and stolid “I’m here all day anyway” refusal to give an inch, and then the little chink of sunshine through her castle wall as she helped you, a normal person who treated her with respect.
Honestly, as someone who has held similar customer-facing positions when he was younger: it’s interactions like these that keep you going. It’s even better when it’s a government agency, because they’re not trying to turn a profit so they’re not going to bend over backwards to make a rich person happy.
The best is when people like this demand to speak to a superior, and then the superior comes over and says the exact same shit the employee just did.
