I have been unemployed for 2 months since Oct 5th. I didn't want to jump on my own sob story.
Well you don't get any points for waiting 2 more posts to do that. However, would it make your situation any better if they didn't take the COLA increase? Seriously? Would that put any more food on your table?
Oh Lighten up. I didn't want to talk about myself - that's all. I am saying that they can't even pass Bush's economic package but they sure as hell can pay a pay raise.
