Lazy, ***********, government employees.

Service at Government departments just keeps getting worse & worse. I spent the entire day yesterday at Home Affairs Orlando in Soweto just to apply for my son's ID, and still walked away without being helped. Arrived there just before 07:00, and left after 16:00. Apparently they prioritize online applicants, then they squeeze in " walk-ins" that's what they call us now. My issue is this - why was it the first time that we've ever heard of their online application? And secondly, this online thing of theirs is not working either ( as is to be expected) A female by the name of Pearl Poto, who is a manager or supervisor at that office, is clearly just as *********** as the rest of her staff.

We are doomed as South Africans if the only way to be assisted at Government offices is to pay a bribe.
