1. I am on SSDI...

compounded with the aggravation of workers' comp making me
go through vocational rehab the 2nd time around, even though
the government has declared me 100% disabled. This has been
going on since 2001. :grr:

2. I know the feeling too well

I'm on SSDI.. went through Voc Rehab to receive an AA in 2001. Couldn't find "work" that was feasible for me to do so I went through Voc Rehab in hopes to get BA in Social Work or something.

After hella tests, I qualified.

Turns out since I make like zero money with SSDI all my student loans are in default. That means no Pell Grant. That means Voc Rehab can't help and I cannot continue training.

So.. I plug on laughing at all the irony as I bite my tongue and try to move forward.

Anyhow....
