Went in to get some help since i had money stolen from me and needed help to get my utility bill paid before i get shut off today and the guy tells me Well fortunately it's not that cold outside. Wow just shows that you must be on drugs or homeless to get any help from them. Honest people just get treated like crap when you go in.

Qualifying for assistance is getting harder and the benefits are getting lower. Just getting in contact with DSHS though is a hassle. Either the call back feature doesn't work, you stay on the phone for hours, or, like just recently, you get told to call back later and they hang up on you. If you dare to make a barely livable wage, you get little to no benefits. I don't blame those who are just doing their jobs, but the people who make the decisions should be ashamed.
