Coxsackie On Genitals

Administration

Facing administration Iran can sometimes take on the ultimate punishment. Fortunately for me, most of the approaches is supported by the local branch of the company where I work. Everything is transparent, or ... almost.

Shortly after my arrival, he had still retrieve my personal belongings that were waiting to customs at the airport in Tehran. This time, no way to scroll, ....

Given the immensity of the task, someone from the local branch accompanied me to guide me through the maze of official and unofficial Iranian customs. To be honest, my role is summed up very quickly and stupidly follow the sign to where it asked me to sign.

would be difficult to explain exactly where and what I went through. Imagine, however, an army of officials in offices worthy of the 50s, says he can not do anything until there is the stamp "Tip" on the form "machine" that must be initialed by a responsible some (but not here), or by his supervisor (but unwilling to stop his game of "solitary" reckless on his PC).

In practice and in numbers, it gives roughly this:
  • First destination, the offices of "Iran Air" for the location of the trunks: 4 wickets and 30 minutes later, we go for ...
  • the main building of customs or focus more rows of officials. After 2h00 of palaver, we finally know exactly where my trunks. So ... the destination.
  • "Main Warehouse" chase between boxes to be sure of finding the right Customs (who is not looking too, but who is, coincidentally, also in high demand). Here it is finally my trunks! But no question of taking them, only the inspection. So back to ...
  • main building. After 45 minutes from office to office, we finally gives the right form to go pay for customs clearance in the ...
  • "Public Warehouse. Good pace: branches marching at high speed ... until a guy comes and gives a stack of newspapers day for staff (which has profoundly reduced our yield). It gives us lots of new documents and destination ....
  • "Main Warehouse" we finally released my 7 trunks quickly put in a truck rented for the occasion. Here it is, we can start by ...
  • "Control Inspection Dept." Verifies that the person who 15aine forms and pieces of paper of all kinds are properly filled / stamped / initialed.
short, after 9 hours and 20aine offices visited, we were finally able to leave with the trunks, trunks ... which unfortunately proved not to be all mine (mine were waiting quietly in Brazil. ... French logistical error).

there are days like this ....
