Me to Financial Aid- "I'm confused. I got this letter that said you need documentation to prove, my divorce, loss of income, loss of job, etc etc. But you already have all that except for the proof of unemployment." (I'm laughing by the way, cuz they only see me like 3x's a week. We're becoming fast friends the poor Financial aid people and me)
Financial Aid- "Uhhh... yeah, but your FASFA didn't come back with as much allotted to you as we thought, so we're putting you under special consideration... trying to get you more money." she chuckles.
Me- "Okaaay... well I grabbed all my files, so what do you need copies of today."
Financial Aid- "The divorce and separation date, the letter of termination from your employer, the statement of how much you'll receive from unemployment and a statement of how much you're income decreased in the last year."
Me- "Well... I given the formula you gave me, my income has decreased 65% since last year. Thanks for that sobering thought" I chuckle.
Financial Aid- "See... this is why we're trying to help" She starts laughing again.
Me laughing-- "Are you SURE you're not just trying to get me to relive every painful event that took place this last year over and over again? Is this some sort of experiment? Am I really in the counseling office? Are you trying to get me closure?"
Her- "Anything we can to do help, anything to help."
Me- "I'm beginning to think I'd best start doubling up on some anxiety meds." lol.
