A Bad Day In Auckland Mood
Thursday, July 10, 2008 | A Frustrating story

Going to the supermarket for food and the card is declined

Calling social welfare and finding out what happened to the last child support payment

Being told it was suspended because I no longer had custody of my children

Asking them why when I was told by my case manager that I would receive their last payment today

Being told that I would have to go into the office and see him myself

Asking the case manager why he gave me the wrong information

Being given a less than convincing apology, considering I had to waste petrol travelling to the office

Asking the case manager for money to feed my children

Being told that their current primary caregiver would have to apply for it the next day

Going to my mothers house to tell her she has to go to social welfare tommorrow and apply for a food grant

Hearing my children cry and cough because they all have the flu

Wanting to kill the people who are only there as financial aids

Telling my mom that I just don't want to be in this country anymore, that I hate this society and everything it stands for
