Let’s Hear it For Social Security

I am not one to sing the praises of any large government agency.  They are bloated, too intrusive, and generally a pain in the neck.

Today, however, I had a really pleasant experience with the Social Security Administration.  I had been dreading having to go to the office.  It’s only a few miles away, but you have to use a section of road traveled by people who drive like drunken kamikaze pilots.

The woman who handled my information took care of everything in about ten minutes.  I will have to have a meeting with them.  The earliest she could give me was November 19.  But–it will be on the phone.  Hooray!  That means I don’t have to schlep to New Brunswick, park in the multi story parking garage illuminated by a 10 watt bulb ( I hate those garages, also) and bring along every possible document I have relating to anything I have ever done in my life.

As the old joke end “So far, so good.”

God bless everybody

    1. Yes, much easier than I expected. The other post–I did not realize I had to put the writing on before I shared the video, so there was no room for it. I will know better next time. It actually made me laugh for the first time in a week or more.
