I am taking a little break after spending a better part of my waking hours today filling 17 pages to apply for a Florida’s Slot Machine Individual Occupational License and Professional or Business Employee Supplemental Information. If you want to work in any casino in Florida in any capacity (may it be as owner, a blackjack dealer or sweeping the sidewalks) you must get this license. The amount of information required by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation is so intrusive it is ticking me off royally but I got to think that about half the people in our current administration in DC wouldn’t be able to apply for this license at all. Florida demands info for proof of citizenship as in a Birth Certificate to IRS records to having never been in an police investigation, fraud, dishonorable discharge, any civil, criminal or investigative procedure, Grand Jury investigations, pardons, local or state code violations, etc.
Geez…. To think I am more prepared to be Czar or Secretary of something than the Hope & Change Gang.
CCW app: 7 pages.
This app: 17 pages.
Now you know why I hated dealing with DBPR.
[…] is having to go through the ordeal of filling out paperwork for the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation. […]
Oh, and you can fill the form online you cannot save it! Who was the colossal idiot at Adobe that came up with this moronic idea?
Probably the same guy who thinks it’s awesome to update Acrobat every other day?
