Its not just the price of the tickets, its also the price of the food and the beer...its really outrageous....it seems like its almost too expensive for the average family with a few kids to be able to go out to the ballgame...and thats really a shame, for those at the lower end of the earning spectrum....
Andy, has been looking for jobs, since he got back from his world trip....he does not really need the money from a job yet, as he took a big contract job, while in Singapore, and they paid him an outrageous amount of money, so hes set for a while...
But he found out he was still eligible for unemployment, so he applied for it, and gets it...but in order to get it, he has to at least make the appearance of looking for a job, and while doing that up in Seattle, he finds really not a lot right now...
Thankfully, Andy had made a lot of contacts in his employement before his world trip, which has landed him several contract jobs here in the states...so he does those, and reports his earnings to unemployement, which I guess cuts off his unemployment funds for a while....
He figures he may just stick with contract jobs, which he can do at home, at his own pace, within the guidelines of the company that hired him....hes lucky he can do that, because as he said, the jobs are really kind of scarce right now..

I think that's what OCC's new job is - he's working for P&G on contract, but still goes there to work.
