One of Marge Simpson’s pair of older sisters, Patty Bouvier works as a clerk at Springfield’s Department of Motor Vehicles. She loves her job, since it allows her to negatively effect the lives of so many: forcing them to wait in endless lines, fill out pointless paperwork, and smile while listening to her gravel-voiced insults. Like her twin, Selma, Patty strongly disapproves of Homer and doesn’t understand what Marge sees in her oafish husband.
