Beth, I am struggling to practice what I've been preaching tonight. I have been dealing with a problem with Social Security since JANUARY. They keep mailing letters to my home address saying the checks mailed to me keep going back to them. Yes, you read that right. They are mailing letters to the SAME DAMNED ADDRESS they send the checks to. How am I getting the letters, but not the checks!?!? Not to mention I set up my account with them for the money to be direct deposited to my bank account!!!
I've tried to fix this online, I lost count of the number of times I've called the national 800 number. Last call was over an hour. The lady on the phone said she saw the record of my calls. She could not figure out how to solve the problem and told me to go to the local office to talk to someone face to face. Two days later I got a letter telling me I would receive my money Dec. Today I got yet another letter telling my I need to provide them with my correct address. My head almost exploded! I am so ×$_/×^*×+ angry tonight. I could rip someone's head off and shout down the hole! At this point I am living off my savings. I'm ready to offer them use of my tractor to get their heads out of their a$$es!
Ok, back to your topic. I guess I am using my skills. I told myself it's okay to be angry about raging incompetence. I believe the average person would be pissed at the circumstances. I have a plan for what to do in the morning. Meanwhile, I have money in savings that will hold me over until I get this fixed.
