Bureau of Bureaucracy
Bureaucracy even sucks online. I’m trying to change the address listed with my Amateur Radio License, but you have to go through a braindead registration system in order to access the system. You type in your info, social security number, etc, and submit. Oh, what’s that? It looks like the FCC already has a record for me, so in theory I can already access everything online and not have to register. The problem is that I have no way of knowing what the password is, so I request a password change, and now I wait.
I had also registered for a “new” registration number, and then when I was done with that, I had to associate my callsign with that number. So I go through the other system to associate the callsign with it, and when I finish it, it says it worked, but when I go back to the main system, it still thinks there isn’t a callsign associated with it.
Sigh.
At this rate, it would be faster if I just filled out the physical paperwork and sent it in.
