I trained to be a Programmer. Mom wants me to be a mechanic.
I graduated from College in 2007 with a Bachelors in Computer Science. However, because of my disability, my mother though I should be on Social Security Disability Income and take a part time job, and be part of some vocational program with people with worse disabilities some who never graduated high school, were on drugs, had been in and out of jail, yet for some reason the geniuses at our State Vocation Reabilitation office though I would be perfect for such program.
It has been a turmultuous 8 years later. I've been in two of those programs, one where I was kicked out and Voc Rehab didn't want to speak to me any more after I tried stating my case that I wasn't a violent person.
Without VR's help this past year, I managed to acquire a part time job with the help of my dad. Ad despite fighting with my mother for the past 8 years to tell her "there are no part-time positions in the tech industry", she has continued to push that I work at a local aircraft factory to become an aircraft mechanic despite that I trained to be a software engineer to do things that were far from the field of aircraft engineering or mechanical stuff, never went to a technical school, and despite doing well at the college I went to always seem to flunk out of whatever community college course that I take.
Yet she is persistent. And she is obstinate. And she is losing her job at the end of the month. And both Social Security and Voc Rehab want to meet up next week.
