Can’t Be Choosers
When you try to get SSI, the process is all about telling them how horrible you are at doing things; how you can’t cook for yourself except for heating things up in the microwave; how it takes you forever to get your place clean; how you didn’t learn to shower until you were twenty; how you can’t use a bus or drive a car or order at a restaurant. Can’t, can’t, can’t. You’re a bundle of deficiency. You may or may not be accepted, and it routinely takes years.
