Have to be very quiet

I just got off the phone with unemployment. The lady told me I am supposed to continue looking for work and that will help solve all the issues I've been having with them.

I thought since I was working, I was exempt from searching.

But, it's a seasonal low paying job, so I'm still required to search. She said to target jobs that are beginning sometime in April.

Time to update my resume again and start sending more out. Can be anywhere in the US

woo hoo he whispers now you get to do more paperless paperwork

Yep!

But on the other hand, maybe another cool seasonal job might pop up

well there is that

So nice of her to be so helpful and tell me how to do it in a way that I won't lose my benefits

At least not until I get a decent paying job that is.

even nicer if she had told you that up front lol

They probably explain it in the handbook, but it's like foreign language the way it's worded.

The people at the work force office in the Keys helped me with my initial claim, but they didn't go over what to do if I did get a job. So yes, it would have been nice.

do you think they hire especially twisted peeps to make those handbooks nearly useless???

Probably

I think they're hoping people don't understand, or aren't smart enough to call and investigate...saves them money that way.

what a racket that would be to get into

Yep, get paid big bucks to confuse people

hey it sure beats telemarketing

Omg yes, I've had one of those jobs, lasting about three hours I think, lol,

If I hadn't walked out, they would have fired me because I refused to do the rebuttals when someone said no

be glad you never had to call nh we top the list at brutally telling telemarketers off

I've done the same from time to time. Although I try to be nice about it.

The place I was working for was supposed to be no pressure and all incoming calls. It wasn't so I left.

bastardly politicians do that in effort to dampen program usage.

i found an even more rewarding and beneficial method.
when they've finished babbling through their pitch (that i wasn't listening to, except for the pause at the end) i tell them how interested i am, then feign a minor emergency that requires me to put them on hold.
then, i lay the phone down so that they can hear background sounds.
about 15 minutes later, i hang up the phone.

they almost always call back whereupon i repeat the process.

not only don't they call back that night, i usually find that i've been removed from their list.
and, apparently from other lists as well, because the calls slowed to a trickle.

it seems they think their time is valuable too, and don't like having it wasted.

nicely done dub

years ago a friends non working wife kept a window salesman on the phone for 3 1/2 hours with no sale

they stopped getting calls too

it was quite satisfying.
