CARL is an average guy—generally affable and mild mannered. It’s just his third week at the DMV and he has been trying hard and had great patience with the outdated infrastructure. But when his computer crashes for the umpteenth time, and he is asked to enter the user-name that he has already entered multiple times, he reaches his breaking point and loses his mind. He leaps atop his desk, tosses paperwork and very publicly quits. Carl is dragged out, kicking and screaming...
