I was wondering about that one. What is the polite translation?

No there are no jobs in your computer, but you know what? nobody wants a written resume or walk in job seeker these days either! Oh you can look in your newspaper for a job if you want, good luck with that!

It pays to know somebody. It helps to be a member of a Church or a volunteer organization.

That being said, if your unemployment INSURANCE benefits run out, they run out. You are not being punished by anyone when that happens.

I have a $500 deductible on my insurance. When some gravel truck drops a rock that hits my windshield it generally costs about $350 to fix it. My insurance company is not punishing me if they tell me to fix it myself. If I want to punish my insurance company, I guess I could find someone who will do it for $600, but then I have to pony up $500 and then my rates go up.

Life just isn't fair.
