    I remember a Toon where people were being downsized. Those that were left got the workload of those that were leaving. The question was: ‘Who was worse off?’

    Wonder if McCoy knows the meaning of “schmuck”. Surprised this got by the comics police!

    Anyone who has had to try to hold their lives together on unemployment would rather be working. It’s barely over the poverty line support. I heard it used to be 2/3 of your previous income “back in the day”, so if that’s your impression, you’d be dead wrong. In my state, if you are fired for “just cause” you don’t get unemployment. Working less than 36 hours per week on average in the last 6 months? No unemployment. Worked at the job less than 6 months before a layoff? No unemployment. If your employer suddenly shuts down without adequate notice to the state, your unemployment can be “delayed” from anywhere from 6 months to 2 years. The only reason I can think the program still exists is to collect those federal administrative dollars.
