Probably would have been better to go to the office. Like your sketches. Did you do them while waiting your turn?

I literally sat and doodled the roughs while on hold with Soc Sec. The day before Claire and I went into the office and were told there was a three hour wait, and that they might not get to us that day. So I called and waited. The clerk who finally answered was very efficient and got me all fixed up. So the system was slow, but it worked.

SSA doesn't have one of those newfangled "tell us when you want us to call back" features? I've actually had some luck with that when I've needed to reach out to some other gummint agencies recently.

No callback option! I was stuck! But I managed to turn on the money spigot so that felt good.

Good things come to those who wait, so some such rot!
