Yes Fran, they really have some attitudes down there. These are all civil servants, so they have total job security and really don't have to worry about being fired. I think they also enjoy the drama that a social services office in a lower class neighborhood sees. Where we have to go, it is't a slum , but it is a drug infested area a few towns away. These people for the most part are indigent single mothers. I would say that there are as many white people in this condition as there are people of color. All of the social workers are white. I think that when they see me and my bi-racial grandchild, they are making some judgments as well as when they see other single mothers/grandmothers.

I told this woman, I am your equal and probably had more education than her. She didn't like that. I hated to have to do that, but she was so judgmental right from the git-go.


Sorry for the rant, I'm off my soapbox now! :angel:
