This is mostly a rant. I just need to vent a bit.
Like a never ending snow storm, sent barreling over a shit mountain while wood chucks, chuck nightmares into a river of bloated crust filled syphilis.
I continue to be sandblasted by never ending waves of fecal matter from the VA office. That's right Ivy Tech community college this is about you, and my seemingly never ending process of getting fist fucked like a Mexican burn victim on the Day of the dead.
It all comes back to the the little buddy known as Tuition Assistance. Do I really need it? At this point? No I don't, but I think I can bang the system into shitting out some more money for me. Why even try you ask? Well why not, its perfectly legal. In the words of the immortal ice cube, "if you don't pimp the system then youse a hoe."
Even the act of getting Tuition Assistance from the Guard was a pain the ass. Since not only does the Army have my name wrong (There is no JR in my name. let alone is it my FIRST NAME)
They not only failed to put in a waiver I submitted last April, but also, in a MISSION ACCOMPLISHED moment, lost it in the sea of paperwork. I had to dig through a mountain of forms to find my copy of it, and after all that work. I wasn't about to not use the thing.
The Government only pays me to be a hoe one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Not nearly enough to put up with this bullshit.
I already have my tuition paid for by the child of a disabled vet grant. (My dads a Nam vet)
I already have my books paid for by the pell grants.
the Tuition assistance should in theory free up the money to go into my account, so I will have enough gas money to get their until my GI bill bullshit processes.
Picture in your head a slimy bit of human existence whose soul purpose on this floating bit of rock is to help with veterans affairs. You even have a lacky that short of snorting school funds off overpriced Asian call girls doesn't do a damn thing.
The aid says he's in the national guard and has never heard of tuition assistance, which makes me weep for his unit.
This VA creature doesn't even know that national guard tuition assistance exists, let alone how to put it in the system. He then in a fit of blurbering double speak sends you to the business office.
The nice people at the business office are confused and do their best to help you. Veterans affairs are not their thing, so they tell you to speak to the VA rep.
He grunts a bit, his slimy tentacles slapping wildly over the keyboard in frustration sends you back.
The nice people at the business office don't know what to do. They send you back.
Till you grip your hair in total frustration and attempt to solve it once and for all by giving copies of your paperwork to every living person in the school. The custodian was more helpful then this fellow. It was satisfying to watch my tuition assistance receipt float in a mop bucket full of refuse swept off that shit stained school. At least I knew it was in good company.
i gave my paperwork to him on November 29th for my GI bill, kicker, and tuition assistance.
December 16th I gave him the same set of papers again and my schedule.
Today in an attempt to get a parking pass(Done!) and get my Student ID(of course the machine was broken).
I found this all out. I will still be able to start school on Monday.
Finally he says he put everything in. We will see how long this lasts before I end up writing another one of these.
But I still have the nagging feeling in the back of my head that something terrible is going to happen, and a whale from space is going to crash into my car or something terribly random will keep me from going on Monday.
I hate everything in the history of everything, ever.:mad:
