All that presupposes there's ever a time when there's no line. I don't know if anybody has experienced that. In my experience the MVC staff has absolutely not a care how long the line is. They move at the same glacial pace, chit chat, and seem to waste time no matter what.

And if they're already an hour behind by noon, then that's by design. It's not like a doctor's office where emergencies happen throwing the schedule off. But like the doctor's office, they plan a wait in so their staff is never facing an empty slot, the customers wasted time is not a factor in the plan until we rise up with pitchforks and torches the way it was starting to happen just before covid.
