The agency has been in existence before I was born which is a positive for me
My mistake in the past was accepting job offers at places that were only 10 years old.
Amazing logic. New Rule from the employment counselor: "If you choose to work for a company which has only been in business for 10 years, you must always bear in mind that the likelihood of your being laid off or terminated is much greater than if you work for a company which has been in existence longer than the years you have been on earth."

I guess I'll tell my friends who lost their job a number of years ago when the railroad they worked for (founded 1913) shut down about this new "rule".
I'll also tell my other friends at the glass factory (founded 1903) since it closed two years ago.
And the ones at one of the oldest Ford dealerships in the US that closed.
Or all the guys in Baltimore at the Sparrow's Point steel plant and the GM factory that made trucks.
Or US Steel, Bucyrus-Erie, Wheeling Pittsburgh and Pullman Standard in and around Pittsburgh.
They'll be excited about how they really should have their old jobs because they worked for old companies.

The organization I was with when I was laid off in dec of 2011 started in January of 2010. That is what I mean

When you do, be sure to give due credit to a Job Counselor with the Human Resources Division of the City of Philadelphia. It may be worth a promotion to management.
God forbid someone take a job to get off unemployment. I mean, they're giving up FREE money, right? You have made multiple statements to that effect - if you cannot see how that attitude would directly correlate to officials seeing no value in supporting an agency that is supposed to help reduce reliance on public assistance, then there is absolutely no point in continuing this conversation. If these attitudes are supported where you currently work, it will not be long before there is no value left and it too will close. It has happened before. It will happen again.
Listen for once - just once.
There have been MULTIPLE hiring managers, employers, etc. that have weighed in on your opinions, not a single one has ever supported your side. These are the people that make the hiring decisions that you are supposed to be facilitating for the people coming to you for assistance. Please, for the love of sanity and the good of the people of PA, listen to that advice - even if you're too stubborn and egotistical to admit it in a public forum.
You're so over-the-top naive about all of this that my only assumption is that you're just bored and trolling - nobody can possibly be as dense as you portray yourself.
So you've extrapolated your experience to include all newer companies.

I think we have a little problem here understanding the definition of "extrapolated".
