Most of the individual people I've dealt with seem level-headed, fair, reasonable, and timely. However, when you put them all together it's a painful concoction. You would think this county would want businesses to open, jobs to be created, additional taxes paid in to the county's coffers. You would be wrong. Seriously, I'd rather have my teeth pulled while being beat on with sticks embedded with nails, at least I could find something positive in the experience.

I'd definitely recommend coming at least 15 minutes before opening if you want to be seen without a long wait. As soon as 9am hit, the doors unlocked automatically and we came in to the front desk to get a number and within one minute we were seen. My husband and I both needed to renew our drivers licenses and Anthony in window 5 handled both of us with ease! He was kind and patient but also very efficient. We walked out with brand new licenses rather quickly. The office itself was clean and there was lots of seating if you do need to wait as well as restrooms available. Once you get a number they call it and put it up on a screen to tell you what window to go to. Overall, excellent experience!

I had a disappointing experience at the Orange County fingerprinting location in Ocoee…read more I was told I had to pay a $27 fee because I live on the "outskirts" of Orange County, even though my address is within Orange County. This felt misleading and inconsistent, as the information was not clearly explained beforehand. Additionally, the staff member assisting me was very rude and unprofessional. She gave instructions in a harsh, condescending tone that made me feel uncomfortable and disrespected. Regardless of the situation, everyone deserves to be treated with basic courtesy and respect. The office was empty at the time, so there was no reason for the rushed or dismissive behavior. I would recommend that this location improve both transparency around fees and customer service. Based on this experience, I would not return.

So, during a recent bout with the flu (don't ever get sick. . .EVER!) I picked up a prescription…read morethat was pretty powerful. After reading the bottle label and the risks involved, I decided not to put it in my precious body. So what to do with it? I took it back to the pharmacy, because that's where it came from. And of course, they would not take it back. I had heard of a community drug take back program available in the Ocoee area, and since I drive by the police department frequently to pick up SBUX, I figured why not drop it off. Now, how should a person properly dispose of unused or outdated medications to prevent harm to others? I have heard of things like mix it with kitty litter and throw it in trash, and the toilet. But instead of trying to sort it all out, I decided to leave it in the drug drop box in the police department lobby after blacking out the bottle label. I think it's a great service, especially if you have medications that kids or teenagers can get into. I wonder if this works for illegal drugs. . .maybe someone who gets tricked into drug smuggling could drop the goods in and save their asses before getting caught and ruining someones life--I watch way too much "locked up abroad." FDA link on how to dispose of medication http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm101653.htm Now, I do have one gripe with Ocoee. Not sure if it's police department issue. It's the photo red light ticket. I think it's more a money making venture than safety related and I was seriously angry when I ended up paying a ticket for turning right on red. It had one of those "stop here on red" signs with an arrow. I'm getting upset thinking about this right now, so I'm going to stop. Yes, quite an abrupt ending.

It's a small office and had a few officers staffing it. I was the only customer so they helped me right away. I was sent there to do fingerprints for work. They had my fingerprints done in minutes. The officer was super nice and even had a sense of humor. For the fingerprint services, an appointment is not needed. They are open from 10 AM to 4 PM on weekdays and they also have hours on Saturday. The cost was $20 for a physical fingerprint card and $25 for the electronic fingerprint. This is by far the best price scheme that I have ever seen. I have gotten fingerprints done many times and it has never been this cheap. The officer checked my fingerprint cards for completion and quality and gave me a receipt. I would recommend this place for fingerprints. They take many forms of payment that they do not accept American Express.

The woman in charge was extremely rude to the bride and her family. We respectfully asked for a little more time as events (as they usually do for weddings) were running slightly behind. Instead of her respectfully telling us it wasn't possible, she came to the bridal suite with bare attitude almost bringing my sister to tears on her special day. During the actual ceremony I had to run back up to the bridal suite (which was behind the stage) without crossing the stage during the ceremony, as an important veil was left behind. I was then barked at by the woman in charge (and a female employee it seems she is training to have the same poor attitude), "You can't go up that way. Go around the building." Mind you I'm running at full speed at this time to prevent the delay of the bride's entrance. Thank goodness for the kind male employee who was working (seriously the only kindness shown to us that day) who came with his key to unlock to the door for me. Took less than 30 seconds as the staff were all standing right there. So basically the woman in charge knew they could simply unlock the door for me, but attempted to sabotage the sacred ceremony by having me run all the way around the building, through the audience, and across the stage to access the bridal suite. Oh wait there is more! The other female staff had the audacity to say to me with contempt, "There is a lot going on here," (mind you the venue is frequently rented for all types of weddings etc. so I'm not sure if she expected us to just be there doing nothing). I simply replied, "yeah, it's a wedding." So infuriating. It felt like prejudice. Save yourself the negative vibes on your special day and rent elsewhere! I don't know what is going on in that woman's life that makes her so unhappy and causes her to project her unhappiness on others, but it's not okay.

It did take me about 20 minutes in total by the time I got in line to what I actually was able to check out.
