True Tales of Transport: The Social Work edition.

Transitioning from school to college in an Autistic friendly Glasgow....

Advice (in May): "You need social work to unlock the girls PIP to provide transport!" 

Us: "Great! Hello social work, can you unlock the girls PIP for transport?" 

SW: "We're busy...leave it with us!"

3 months later....

SW: "It's nothing to do with us, you need to talk to magic transport man....anyway they may want to walk/get the bus/fly there....personal choice and all that!"

Us: "They can't travel alone, it'd be really unsafe!" 

SW: "But they might want to! Thing is, we've had you on file since 2005 but we thought we'd attempt to send psychic messages to tell you this, you never responded so we reckoned you were OK!"

Us: "Did you think to ring us to see if we needed help?" 

SW: *silence*

SW: "To be fair we did once come to your house to say hello to Cassidy."

US: "Yes you did, then you left and never came back, still no idea what that achieved."

SW: "It meant we could tick a box. Box ticking is very important, you wouldn't understand."

SW: "Anyway, we've left this till last thing Friday afternoon and to be honest I want to go home and get pissed on cheap Prosecco but we could think about maybe talking to someone but in the meantime can you just totally re-organise your week so you can take them to college and back?"

SW: "Oh and by we could talk to someone we actually mean you."

Us: internally screaming.
