Funny- Letter I received from the Dept of Labor

I was on unemployment for about a month last year while I was in between jobs.

Today I get a form letter in the mail from the NYS Dept of Labor informing me of some new 13-week extension that was just signed into law etc.

The letter was basically saying that if I was still unemployed (even though they must know I haven't filed a claim in over a year. Chat Icon ) that I should re-apply for this new extension, etc, etc.

The kicker though was this line:

If you are currently working, DO NOT QUIT YOUR JOB to collect these benefits, as you will not be eligible.

The fact that they have to put that line in the letter actually made me Chat Icon .

Yeah, let me go quit my job now to collect those extra 13 weeks of measly unemployment benefits that I missed out on! Chat Icon

Re: Funny- Letter I received from the Dept of Labor

oh you would be surprised

I dated this guy - his mother was "disabled" but worked off the books

she was an RN making a ton before she fell and got hurt

she would rather get $900 a month disabilty then go back to being an RN

she said if they are going to give me $900 for free - I am going to take it

she would have made then in a week and then some back at her job
