Fame

If you do a Google search of all the famous people who worked at the DMV, you'll come up with nothing at all—unless you count Patty and Selma Bouvier from The Simpsons. It's not that no celebrities have ever worked there, they just don't want to talk about it. If there's anything less glamorous than working at Starbucks, it's working at the DMV. However, that doesn't stop performers from setting the DMV itself in their sights.

That's okay with them—the DMV operates best when all its cogs are striving for personal excellence, not narcissism. In fact, fame matters so little to the DMV that it treats celebrities like they're―gasp―normal people. If you think Katy Perry and Jay-Z get to skip the line and get preferential treatment, think again. They actually might have it worse than most other people. After all, most people aren't getting stared at by everyone else in the room.
