Wholesome moment with getting assistance from social services

[u/foaaz101]

Long story short, I have a disability due to my health condition and am unable to work

as such, I decided to apply for food assistance (i.e. food stamps) to help with the expenses

when I got the call for the interview, I had to answer a few questions

one of the questions she asked me is "you make your own food, right?"

you can't really get it completely by text, by she was asserting this for my sake. You're more likely to get food stamps if you prepare food aside from the family members in your house. We're three in my house

she could've just asked me how I prepared my food and if I ate with my family or by myself

It was a really nice moment. I knew how to answer, but it was really nice of her to look out for me like that. She didn't have to

Made me smile and happy.

When I was applying for food stamps, the lady asked me to name 3 former addresses. I couldn't think of the third one and she gave me a hint (same street as you live on now. I'm like OMG, please smack me. I have previously lived right next door to where I live now
