Find work to get through recession

So scary to think about the amount of unemployed out there!

I found it really useful to do temp work in between jobs and picking up freelance and bartending gigs.. it helps to keep you busy and pass the time

Ahh the humor in it all

So the problem seems to be under staffing at the unemployment office.

Seems if the un-imp-deployment office were to hire...something like 30,161 people, that ought to do it. They'd be able to handle almost all of the claims that are bound to come in...soon.

oh wait. Don't want to give anyone the false impression that I give a sh$t.

Or that, at the rate the gov't is printing money, that the un-imp-deployment benefits would be worth anymore than say toilet paper.

I know how we can get all our minds off all this gloom and doom, lets sign into law another spending package. That always cheers people up.

Ohio, too

Heard on the news this morning that Ohio's unemployment computer system also crashed yesterday, it's back up now. Also the phone system caved in temporarily. Yeah, this bodes well.

The Gov't will spin the numbers...

The Gov't will spin the numbers...they'll find ways of not accounting for some people....

North Carolina As Well

There was an article in the newspaper yesterday about North Carolina's unemployment processing system crashing as well due to overwhelming applications. I dread seeing the next unemployment figures reported by the govenment

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
