@WeirdWriter Love me a malicious compliance in the morning!

@WeirdWriter i have a friend - it's actually her birthday today - who is in a similar place with the hoops she has to jump through to keep the meager benefits she gets. It's disgusting how our government treats vulnerable people. Reading about your malicious (or should I say delicious!) compliance made my day.
I hope it makes her smile at least! I *hate* how our society treats poor people. Classist nonsense all the way down from people that are strangely concerned about someone feeding themselves with food stamps. I don't get the obsession. Super strange! @LJ

I shouldn't even have to do this review as often as I do! And her tone. Her tone is what really got to me, like, no sympathy at all so I was like, fine, let's play! I can't stand this if you deserve it system we have now. @ragman

@stephaniepixie Her Tone is what really got to me. No sympathy whatsoever! I shouldn’t even have to do this ridiculous review every few years AnyWho. Thank you! Don’t fuck with me before my morning tea! Smile!
@WeirdWriter I’ve had to deal with Canadian provincial support workers and I’ve never felt more condescended to in my life (and I worked in cafes and retail for decades) so I can imagine the feelings you must’ve felt. I was pure fury but didn’t have a creative response like you did.

@WeirdWriter I just love malicious compliance weaponized like this. Brilliant.

@quidcumque Thank you! More to come, because I have a hell of a lot of these kinds of stories because my GOV hates poor people and disabled people

@WeirdWriter I hope Karen gets really really scared now everytime someone in the office asks for "complete documentation".

@WeirdWriter
Had to read portions to my spouse because I started laughing out loud. -

Well, they demanded it. It is only right they got it. One page at a time.
On another note, it appears the line linking to the tips page is missing a closing square bracket, so the link doesn't get rendered properly @WeirdWriter

@WeirdWriter bless, this is life giving. The next time I get hit with a review I'm taking a page from your book.

@WeirdWriter Five hundred plus pages. Diabolical. I hope they learn their lesson and keep your documents as a memento mori. On the other hand, imagining you threatening to do it again is making me laugh maniacally.

@mxjaygrant Yes, it is so, frustrating. I used to comply with just the right anount but not anymore! Make them *never* want to cancel your services. Teach them you are radical enough to not stop until you have things sorted out. I really do hate this system we are in so much!
-
@WeirdWriter this is great. So great.
@jhamre More to come! I have many more because, yes, the system gives me *plenty* of material!

@fargate Ah thanks! I just fixed it! By the way, I also *just now* learned how to do multiple redirects in Eleventy which is super epic! But thank you! More to come!

@WeirdWriter Absolutely. I've a couple of friends who've had to fight to get on disability and it's been such a nightmare. Nobody should have to go through the American benefits process.
