Shhh

I went to the DMV today to transfer my car registration to California...

I was finally called to speak to someone (I had an appointment and only waited about 30 minutes), and a very sassy but very nice woman took my form and entered all of my information into the computer system. After reviewing my forms, she told me that because my car was purchased within the past year, I had to pay sales tax. "We'll give you a credit for the amount you paid in Texas, but there's a balance." Okay. "The registration fee plus that tax brings your total to $1,360.22." I laughed. Then I whispered to her, "Can I just walk away?" She put her hands up, then hit the delete key and said, "I never saw you." I thanked her and left.
