Not so sure about that one.I think it's more entropic: if I ever have to ring up the same administration more than once, there's a cast-iron certainty I'll get a completely different answer every time, just because I'm speaking to somebody different. I've actually got into the habit of taking a half-day off work and going down there in person, because that's the only way anything ever gets done and I avoid getting fucked over.
