Honestly, I used to laugh at the idea of a 'deep state' until I worked on a federal building project in DC

We had a simple permit for a water line get held up for 9 months by three different agencies, each blaming the other. Tbh, seeing that mess up close made me get why people believe in shadowy groups running things. Has anyone else had a normal job that suddenly made a conspiracy theory feel a lot more real?

Wait, they held up a water line for nine months? That's not just red tape, that's a whole red carpet of nonsense.

Yeah, that red carpet of nonsense miles_roberts22 mentioned is real. The trick is to get a single point of contact at the lead agency and make them own the whole timeline.
