The state of Colorado at it's finest

Four months after I got out of the Navy, it was tax time. I filled out the forms and sent it in as early as possible. I was ready for a refund check to party with in college! The IRS had other plans.

I waited and waited, no luck. I called the “local” office and talked to machines - no response. Finally, damn near 6 months after I submitted my taxes, I got a written response! Basically, it said “We regret to inform you we cannot mail your refund check because we do not have your mailing address.” WTF?

I called again and read them the letter that they mailed to me. They really wanted that letter back, but I kept it (and lost it over the years).

After I explained to them they were idiots, I got my refund check within 3 days.
