ministry of health refuses my application

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Vancouver, 2002.02.08

The *&#(*!&# provincial ministry of health took 9 weeks to look at my form and decide that I hadn't provided enough information. I didn't fill in a lone entry on one of the forms; an entry that was worded in a way that sounded like I didn't have to fill it in. I had to attach a separate letter to the application to explain how I couldn't fill in the part asking me for 'income due to interest'. Aaaargh! I guess this means I'll have another few months without coverage! %@*&@#*!

At least I had an interview with an agency today. Makes me feel like I was doing something, regardless.
