I spent the worst 3 hours of my life at the Long Island City Food Stamp Office. Once I got a ""counselor"" she didn't even look at nme - did not identify herself and seemed like I was generally wasting her day. She asked me for information that I did not seem relevant - namely how I spent my money during the year. I told her that did not seem pertinent. What was important that I have $0 money now - no job - I take care of my 90 year old mother. She called over her supervisor. I said the same thing to her. She told me I was being disrespectul. Then told me me go sit in the other side of the room - like I was being punished. I asked for my papers back and told her I was done. She following me out saying if you make a complaint make sure you tell them you were disrespectful. These are people President Obama can be very proud of NOT.
