Folks in Louisiana are experts at living off the government

I think that's the max. They won't pay you more than you made.

Well that would go against the end goal

I’d be surprised if they get it done by then. Surprise me Gov. Edwards!

Really sad the non essentials are getting all this government cheese when the back bone of America is getting shite on as usual

even better, they're not making you search for a job either.
Dont agree with that at all. I have to keep a log of places I've applied and if I turn down a job in my wage bracket I'll have my benefits revoked. Texas has that part right

That's fine while the quarantine is in effect, but when restrictions are lifted un-employment should go back to normal.

Wonder if since I still own property there if I can somehow screw over the state

I'm seriously considering picking me up a 10-12 hour a week part-time job when everything opens up. If there's going to be all of these open positions employers will be willing to pay for good hands. In theory, at least.

When I brought this up to the poliboard weeks ago, there were some people laughing and calling BS.

I know a few people out here through some sober living houses that I used be GM of the company that owned them. It's a shame they're are giving some of these losers that much money. A few of them are making more money now than they were when they were actually working.
I think there should have been some kind of slotting or something. Paying a dishwasher $3000+ a month to sit on his arse all day and play video games when he usually only makes about $2000 is ridiculous and a waste of money.
I know it wasn't the fault of any workers, but the amount of money being wasted is ridiculous.

Is there a way I could come out of retirement and get on that gravy train.

They’ve already started paying regular unemployment. We’ve gotten it for 2 weeks. The $600 is federal/extra starts according to JBE Monday.
Posted on 4/8/20 at 6:32 pm to Privateer 2007
I’d make less but gladly go back to work.
