Added DiffLines:
'''Basic Trope''': A government office (often the Department of Motor Vehicles or an equivalent) that causes trouble for the customers.
* '''Straight''': Alice tries to go to the DMV to get a driver's license. It takes forever, and several of the employees there are {{Obstructive Bureaucrat}}s.
* '''Exaggerated''': Alice ends up waiting several days to get her driver's license, and the employees are all extreme {{Jerkass}}es.
* '''Downplayed''': Alice ends up waiting a little longer than expected, and the employees are somewhat unhelpful.
* '''Justified''':
** There are always a lot of {{Unsatisfiable Customer}}s at the DMV, and the employees are {{Beleaguered Bureaucrat}}s who are tired of taking the abuse.
** The computers used at the DMV are TheAllegedComputer, making it difficult for the employees to do their jobs.
* '''Inverted''': Alice manages to get her driver's license very quickly and efficiently, and the DMV employees are friendly and helpful towards her.
* '''Subverted''': Alice dreads going to the DMV because she knows it'll take forever. After [[TakeANumber taking a number]], though, she gets called up very quickly...
* '''Double Subverted''': ...but then the employees take forever to get her license ready.
* '''Parodied''': The DMV is [[WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}} entirely staffed by]] SluggishSloths.
* '''Zig-Zagged''': Alice goes to the DMV several times. Sometimes it takes a long time, and sometimes it goes by relatively quickly.
* '''Averted''': Alice never goes to the DMV or other government offices.
