Sounds like a mooch to me.
What about the man who didn't support his own kid? She was supposed to support HIM?

That sounds like something someone who will mooch off of UE as long as they possibly can would say.

Obviously you're doing well so what's your point. I have no idea why anybody that has a decent job would spend all day talking on a thread that deals with people being unemployed. I can understand people out of work doing it because it's not like they have much else to do but why would anybody else spend all their time here unless they enjoy rubbing salt into the wound?

So, what are your options? Just do nothing after a year? What about when the govt checks stop coming? Sometimes minimum wage jobs lead to more than minimum wage jobs.
I'm not eating WHILE on unemployment which is MORE than minimum wage. You really think I can afford to eat by working for less money than I'm currently getting?

Gosh, I really can't believe how thick some people's skulls are.

Apparently, some things are thicker than molasses. Definitely gives a new meaning to the phrase "rocks for brains".

I still think he got the better end of the deal, he ultimately didn't have to deal with you.

Maybe if you put as much effort into looking for a job as you do towards posting drivel, you wouldn't be unemployed.

Bingo. I've hit that wall more than once, when I tried applying for minimum wage jobs... really really frustrating, especially when you know you'll do a good job there.

So...are you the kind of guy that won't get out of bed for less than $15 an hour??

Something > nothing. So even $5 an hour is better than not making anything.
