WooHoo I’m Getting an Unemployment Check
Well the rat bastards I used to work for didn’t block my unemployment claim like I half-expected them to do. I get the state maximum which is…are you ready…$275 per week. Not that I’m complaining. Especially since I saw an ad on CL for someone who can routinely carry 60 pounds of chemicals up and down stairs at a warehouse with the stunning salary of $200 per week. That’s right, $200 per week to be exposed to chemicals. I get more doing nothing than some poor schmuck working at a chemical warehouse. There in lies the problem. A lot of people would rather sit at home for 99 weeks than kill themselves for a lesser amount. I don’t blame them. I don’t advocate the whole “livable wage” crap but let’s be real.$800 a month won’t pay for a thing down here.
My stint on unemployment may be short-lived since I have two potential jobs lined up. However, at least I can keep the bill collectors at bay until I get a paycheck. This economy sucks ass (I’ve been on unemployment twice under Obama) and we need to kick those socialist assholes out of office in November. I’ll take Mitt or Newt over Obama. Hell I’d even have crazy-ass honey badger Ron Paul over Obama. All I know is that come November, we need to kick the squatters out of the White House and put an adult in charge.

I’ll say Amen!
Congrats on the check. That might fill… 3 grocery bags? If even? Still, every little bit…

We’ll need those chemicals to fumigate the White House when those assholes leave.
