Utter defeat
by minecompletely
I have been on hold with Service Canada for about half an hour now. Everything about dealing with the government of Canada is annoying, irritating, and slow. Let me explain. I have had this issue with my birth date being wrong in some government database somewhere. I’ve been dealing with this for years. I don’t know where it started or how the problem began, I’ve been told it was because one year my accountant provided the incorrect birth date on my taxes, I’ve been told it originated when I first got my SIN card at the age of I don’t know, five, I’ve been told it was just a data entry error along the way somewhere (if that’s the case, I want to hunt down the person who entered it incorrectly and punch them in the throat). I don’t know why this is an issue, and I don’t care. ALL I WANT IS FOR IT TO GO AWAY.
At this date, I have provided the government and various branches of the government, with my correct birthday as verified by my birth certificate a total of 8 times. Today I have to go into the Service Canada center by my house and verify it again for the 9th time. Seriously, I just… how are we still a country?
I can’t take it anymore Canadian government. You win. I am but an empty shell of the person I once was before all of this began. You have sucked every last ounce of motivation I once had to fix this problem. I accept defeat.
