cyrano: (Game and Match!)

It came in the mail on top of two letters from the EDD. The first one explained the three reasons that I wasn't eligible for the education program*, and the one underneath it said they were cutting off my benefits because I wasn't available for full time employment offers.
Barring kl_williams' suggestion to challenge (which I'm dubious about chances of success outside of the prolonged paperwork struggle they place between me and resolution), that's the point I promised I'd find another job market. So I'll withdraw from classes this week and go back into full on remote job hunting and packing and stuffing boxes somewhere mode.


*First, that there were plenty of jobs in my previous field, second, that I didn't have an approved one year plan, and third, the program is not designed for a college degree. There's a fourth paragraph that appears to be lots of citations for another reason, but I'm unable to immediately sort it out. It looks like there is a metric assload of documentation about the program, and I find it really a shame that I never had any access to it.

crap like this is exactly why I lied to EDD about going to school. Technically, I was still available for full time work and I wasn't about to give them an excuse to pull the financial rug out from under me.

I did a couple of classes online, and skipped mentioning them. I was definitely still available, anyway.

I'm sorry it didn't work out. I have dealt with the federal types for a number of years now and they basically suck.
