“What’s next?” - I imagine these people go get a job. I’m not trying to be cute; but, there are lots of menial jobs which pay about as much as unemployment. Some will retire early, some will move back in with their parents, some will live on credit cards, sell vehicles, etc....but some will simply have to take a lower paying job.
because these unemployed do NOT want to work...
I just had a conversation with the manager for Rite Aid here in Hollywood and they have had the same openings for 6 clerks but the number of applicants are less than expected. He interviewed more than 50 in the last 3 months and their attitude is not the right kind.
My other close bud who works for Worksource in L.A. Gosh, the applicants just want to stay home but HAVE to attend the job trainings because if they do not attend, their benefits will be cut off. Buncha a lazy people..
