The Bulgarian embassy here in Tirana is a shitty place...not the just the iron-bars gate which is "untouchable" because a guard yells at you-"do not touch it", but everything there. You have to stay in a queue and write the name in a wrinkled piece of paper. While you wait there, you see some people that enter there without staying in the queue because they might speak Bulgarian or come from any of the state institutions. Staying in the queue i learned that you can take the visa faster than the 10 days time that they require to process your visa application, by just giving an extra tip (bribe) of 30-50 euros. And you can also enter faster and without staying in the queue if you pay the guard or know the consul.
They can wait for visa application 3 days per week from 8:30-12 . So, i stayed there for 2 hours waiting my turn to enter, but the guard was letting other people outside the queue to enter there. At 12 he came at the gate and started yelling, "No one enters for today, go home". The people waiting there were outraged. There was an invalid girl that waited for the whole day and now she has to come next week again.
Fucking embassy, i do not know how did they manage to be in the EU?
