Would strongly advise not getting to Chang Wattana at 2pm on a Monday. 431 serving now. Hope this helps someone. Hell on earth.
Answer summary
Visiting Chang Wattana for visa services around 2 PM on a Monday is highly discouraged due to long wait times, as indicated by recent experiences. Arriving earlier, such as at 10 AM, significantly reduces waiting time because fewer tourists are present.

Well the good news is you'll get served because you have a queue number

BUT

That was a near total fail showing up on a MONDAY this late in the day.

If you'd have shown up at say 10:00 AM you'd have been out by 10:30 because as a rule tourists (the people who use section K) do not wake up early at all and it's a ghost town. By 11AM or so once the tourists wake up and get there you can't even sit down in that section
