Reality Check, Part 2

Well, John got a job offer - part time, $10/hr, no benefits. This means he'll have to take a 2nd part time job to bring him up to almost half of what he was making. The really sad part is he has to take the job. You don't get a choice. The way the system is set up, you can't turn down a job offer and still collect unemployment with the hopes of something better coming along. If you are "able to work" you have to take it. Otherwise, you lose the unemployment. No wonder the world is screwed up...

I guess we shouldn't complain.
