Ugh, they denied my unemployment extension. Jerks! I worked at the same company 9 years. Do you think I like being out of a job?

My boss just fired me. I've only had the job for one week. Here's hoping I can at least collect unemployment. Ugh.

I consider my unemployment money towards recovering from the PTSD I am sure my crazy boss gave me, And basically everyone else in the company under her.

I'm a SAHW. My husband is a SAHH. It's called unemployment.

I used to be a facility manager. I was incharge of a full staff, a media department,and was charged with the day to day function of a university building, students, faculty and staff. I was laid off. 5 years later, i'm stuck in a cube farm, stuck on a "team" where you have to wait your turn to even be considered for a promotion. I'm bored. I'm frustrated. I'm angry. If I could go back in time, i'd not take this job and stay on unemployment for a while longer. SMH. I feel like this is going the be this way for a long time. :(

I worked in customer service call centers for 10 years, was laid off from my last job, now I am studying to be a paralegal while I collect unemployment.Dear customers, YOU SUCK!!! I will panhandle on the street before I go back to working in a call center and being abused all day/night.

I posted the other day about my coworkers complaining that I'm not friendly enough, even though they've been unfriendly and exclusive since I started working there two years ago. I really want to quit my job to get the company I want to start off the ground. I have more than 6 months of expenses saved up, and no kids, but I make 50% more than my husband, plus if I stay through July 2013 I'll get a 14.000 euro bonus. I think I should leave now, collect unemployment (50% of my salary) for a year, and get my business up and running. It's a miserable situation, and it won't get better. what to do?

If my employees would concentrate on serving the customers, making the customers happy, learning how to answer a phone politely, and treating everyone with respect, we would not have problems in the office. Because they do not do any of the above, we are involved in constant drama. I can't work with any of you any more because you do not understand the simplest things about how to perform your jobs! Next thing is I'm firing all of you and getting new people who will have the job skills you seem to have lost. Think that over in the unemployment line....

A year n half of unemployment and I didn't get the job all because of a typing test, no interview at all. I am beginning to wonder if an employer will ever give me a chance.

I got a call back for a possible interview...feel free to pray for a random stranger that might get a interview...I have been on Unemployment for a Year-n-Half. I could really use this job.
