Anyone know where to get the IC stamp in the interim?
Unfortunately I didn't catch your post before I went down to DPS HQ to renew my DL. I thought that by using the Kiosk I would get my new DL faster since I mistakenly let my other one lapse. It was 68 degrees outside and they closed both buildings because of an AC problem! Really?! I do not know of many businesses that would close because their AC went out. Surely they have fans. Anyhow I decided to head to Pearl to use their kiosk, which the DPS calls convenient. Big mistake! That machine and the only machine they have, had a "Out of Order" sign on it. Not to be out done I headed to Metro Center and finally got my license renewed, but wait, I found out that you don't get a new license at the kiosk, they issue you a receipt and take a new picture and mail you a new DL. My mistake I will admit I should have renewed on time and on line, but for an metro area to only have 3 locations to renew or get your DL is ridiculous. No one can ever accuse the State of MS of being efficient and user friendly!
Just returned from Metro Center. Shocking! The place was very well staffed and the mall looked pretty nice. I was shocked at the number of stores that have opened in the place.
As I understand it, the service has improved by the closure of the office. No service at all is better than poor service.

Total Bullshit.
The MS DPS "Driver Services" office is far and away the worst, WORST, in the entire state if not the country. To call the "specimens" who are employed there merely incompetent would be a compliment.
@ 9:30- is your sarcasm meter broken?
Went to Metro Center yesterday for a renewal. If not for the obese women in grey uniforms I could have sworn I was at the medicaid or social security office. There's something odd about the large number of people who seem to enjoy lounging around in these gubment offices, punching cell phone buttons, slappin' they babies, battling for poorest posture. Moreover; Why in hell, in 2016, do we have to get in the car and drive 10, 20, 40 miles to renew a damned driver license?
