Tomorrow im going to a meeting

[Icequeen]

I will now explain how I got my disability. My old shrink and I had a meeting with a social security bitch.

My shrink: "He likes to make explosives."

Social security bitch: "Explosives?"

My shrink: "Yes, explosives."

A few weeks later I got my disability. True story.

Probably afraid if she disapproved you might blow up her car.

After all aren't 90% of the deviants that make the 6:00 news "aspies"?

Good luck Zegh, hang in there... it's a paper shuffle, I think they think if they shuffle long enough you'll either kick off or disappear through a crack and they won't have to worry about it.

Yup. Conclusion: Let's gather for a new meeting! This time everyone concerned will be gathered. This is a good sign, but it doesn't mean it's not something I didn't go through a year ago, that somehow cycled back to where I am now -.-
It's like a bizarre dream...

Hah, reminds me of how finally got sent home from military service.
"I can't deal with never being alone."
"Find a way."
"I am losing it, I've lasted half a year, but enough is enough, I need to get away now."
"Poppycock!"
"I am not made for this! Please! The tasks etc are fine, but I cannot be swamped in people 24/7 for months on end, I am at my breaking point!!!"
"Tough luck."
"I cut myself."
"O_O" *airplane ticket, stamp, WOOOOSH, taxi, Hi mom! :0*

I was still a Finnish citizen when I went to high school in Sweden. About mid-semester, I got a letter from the Finnish state, drafting me. I replied, telling them I was it was actually mid-semester and then applied for Swedish citizenship. I got another note, telling me that I'd either be there or they'd send the police to get me.

That's about when my application came through so I told them they'd be violating international law. I never heard back from them again.

Two years later, though, I was studying physics at the uni but home for a holiday, when the Swedish police knocked on our door and delivered a draft notice from the Swedish state. Apparently their address registers were outdated and they hadn't been able to find me.

  Were you a military Moomin?!

Answer the fuckin question!

No, I never actually joined the army.

The draft happened, during which I met with a shrink and explained to her that I was fine with the basic idea but since my habits were late, perhaps I could have my stuff in a corner somewhere and do my thing when everyone else had gone to sleep.

After a brief discussion we agreed that the army wasn't for me.

The FRA (the Swedish NSA) very much wanted me, though, probably because I was already studying physics and mathematics at the time and fitted their profile. I had to do a lot of tests designed to pinpoint my code-breaking abilities. Thankfully the shrink saved me.

Yeah the military is rough on those who are seriously not cut out for it. Typically those who made it known that they wanted out were kept in as an example of how fucked it could be then let out maybe 2 months early with an admin discharge and bad RE code.

I would have been useless at it. Maybe not the FRA, but the army in general. I'm not cut out for it.

The military couldn't figure out what to do with my father when he was drafted. He broke their mathematical aptitudes test. They shipped him off to some obscure base and the war was over before they'd worked anything out. It gave him a lifelong hatred of them because the draft interfered with his postgrad study of math.

My father wasn't drafted, because he was bread-winner from age 13 on.
His brother was drafted, but got sent home after six weeks. He had strange feet, that did not fit in army boots. So, the army wanted to do surgery to make them fit (surgery on my uncle, not the boots). My dad and grandmother said they would only sign consent if the army would bear all consequences, also if it went wrong. After six weeks the army gave up trying getting a consent for a very experimental type of surgery.

The airforce wanted me to assist a weatherman at an airforce base. That was kind of classic how I got out of that too.

I was studying German at the university and called some captain I-don't-remember-his-name to postpone military service to after my studies. He sounded very unwillingly and it seemed like I would have to go to that airforce base soon anyway.

But a week later the captain called me back.

Captain: "Do you want to do military service?"

I: "Honestly speaking - no."

Captain: "It seems like they are cutting down on the defense, so there might not be much military in the future. I put you in the draft reserve."

I: "Thank you."

That was the last time I ever heard from the military.

WTF? Surgery so you can be drafted?

Those Dutch are insane

it's completely fucked up. "We'll *make* you fit."
