What you need to do is go to the last place (the one full of assholes) and stand in their office while they print, stamp/seal the transcript. Then you watch them put it in the envelope, address it, put the stamp on and drop it in the mail. Make sure you do all of this in the morning, before the mailman comes. Then you stick around until the mail is picked up. Be as much of an ass as it takes to get things done. BTW: Congrats on George Mason.
