The Bloody Doors Off

Had to call into EI this morning because, while I wait word on whether I qualify for the medical extension, I still have put in reports. And there’s always some obstacle that makes me have to call in.

And today I got some brutally honest news from one of the workers. When the consider the medical extension, they have to look over the past 60 weeks for insurable hours. I’ve been out of work since August 2012 and haven’t had anywhere near enough in my business, nor was I aware about applying for a program that would take maybe $2 a month and apply it as a buffer.

Essentially told, ‘don’t get my hopes up’. Actually, those were the words he used.

So the glimmer of hope I had, that maybe there was a net to break my fall… turns out that’s likely a shadow across the concrete.

Yeah I turned a corner. And it was into a one-way lane and I’m going against traffic.
