Must be a requirement for staff to have the worst attitude and be rude to you every step of the process to get a marriage license. If you hate your job, leave. No wonder why people hate the government. P.s. there's a whole TSA checkpoint which is a bit much.

Very fast entry through security checkpoint at the building entrance, there was no line approaching the lunch hour. Was no line in the Clerk's Office either, met with a very pleasant staff member and all paperwork was completed quickly and efficiently. Not bad at all unlike the cruddy Jersey bureaucratic way.
