already married girls!!!! [social security question] {update at bottom}

So my problem is that I start a new job on Monday and gave them my 'new' name...but I haven't changed my social security information yet. GRRRRRRR. I went to the office in Mineola b/c on the SS website for locations, that's the only location it gave me. I was there for an hour and told it would be HOURS before they got to me!

DOES IT MATTER WHICH ONE I GO TO???? I've heard that some locations are faster...but can I use the other locations? I'm starting to think not all because when you put in the zip code for a location, it gives you one 'in your area.' It took some making up of zip codes to even get an address for another office. I don't really want to wait WEEKS/MONTHS by mailing it in, but I don't want to sit in Mineola for HOURS either.


GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

If anyone knows whether or not I can use ANY location that would be great...b/c the sweet government only gives you an 800-number and it is ONLY automated.
