Places we hate to be

I am a student in Paris and despite the fact that I have an american passport, I have to go through some much crap just to be in this country (France). A few days ago, i spent 3 hours in the line at the immigrations office only to be told that i would have to come back the next day to set up an appointment. While I was in the line i was thinking about how much i hated just standing there and being idle. It then inspired me to think about places that I hate being because of the idleness it entails and the unlimited time you can waste there..
so i decided to publish a list...please feel free to add some as my knowledge and experience is very limited

Places we hate to be
-Hospitals
-Embassies
-Driver license offices
-Police stations

I would say I have learned though. After the first two painful visits, I decided to be proactive and to carry a book with me the following time. Sometimes it is hard getting the discipline to actually pick up the book and read but in a situation where I have to stand 3 hours just to speak to a human being who holds a key to my goal, I realize it is to my benefit in all avenues to have a book with me so I can at least be productive. It is a win-win situation.
