The Daily Teaser — 1-7-2014: Walk Like A Walkman

Well … 

That’s a start … 

~≈∑≈~

You’ve been following me for a while, haven’t you … ?

And probably realised I’ve have had my out of work benefits stopped: over being put off a Mandatory Work Placement scheme through — I believe — no or little fault of mine.

Understandably … ?   Understandably, I’ve spent most of the weekend running the gamut of emotions: from depressed, to suicidal, to thoughtful … to outright steaming anger, with a hair trigger that — given the wrong circumstances or too many beers — have done some damage.

I’m thankful yesterday was a Monday, though.

That meant various offices were open.

And meant that I could put in an initial appeal — called a Mandatory Reconsideration — against the decision to suspend my benefit, and could put in a claim for hardship funds.

What happens now … ?   What happens, now, is very little: and mostly involves me hurrying up and waiting.

Frankly … ?   Frankly, I’m expecting the worst to happen: although I hope any hardship payments enable me to get by, for now.

Either way … ?

It feels good to have been able to have done something positive.
