people will not need to take advantage of all thirteen months of the unemployment extension.

Having been unemployed twice in the past four years (including one stint which lasted 5 months after my "benefits" ran out) I will say that I sympathize with those who genuinely can't find work, but I would bet the numbers are small compared to those who are popping a cork at the news that they will be able to sit on their butts for another year.

We just had a guy who worked for us for 3 days and QUIT, and then filed for unemployment. That’s the mentality of some out there. Free ride. Of course, we fought it and won, but he was hoping we would not and he would have hit the jackpot.
