Been to banks all morning today and the amount of time you spend on a line to take care of simple things you could easily do at home if the Portuguese new Citizen's Card would work at 100% is amazing.
My question is… Why the heck did they even bothered to remodel the old ID card to the new Citizen's Card if not even Social Security or Finances Services benefit fully from it?
Was that just another Mr. Sócrates' stunt to look good in the picture saying how much we'd benefit from this new service instead of working towards a more unified system between all official services?
Well, good thing he's gone with the wind to Paris to study philosophy, but in the meanwhile I hope the current PM will make something useful out of the Citizen's Card, once we already were bonded to it by default and we're not actually benefiting from it as it didn't simplify anything gin our lives.
