Bureaucratic mess

Getting things back to normal after the Great Shift was not going to be easy. With everyone swapped into new bodies, it opened up plenty of doors for fraud. Within a few days, the government had set up offices for people to claim what was rightfully theirs. These offices were often packed, and the required forms people had to fill out were long. Doug scanned the papers squeezed on a couch between four other men who had also switched bodies with women. Some were fretting the various parts of the form that verified identity. Who knew their driver’s license number off the top of their heads!? Others zipped through pretty confidently. Regardless, the situation was still a complete bureaucratic mess.
