My unemployment benefit year ended on the 13th. I was starting to get little frustrated because I hadn't heard anything about an extension, as I didn't think I made enough to start a new claim. Well... I didn't think about the alternate base period they check if you don't make enough. Not only am I getting a new claim, my benefit rate is going up $26 per week. Awesome.

SIMMFOC get $55 a week for working graveyard shift rolling burritos at Taco Bell and you get much more by staying at home? Fuck, your country is so wrong.

Probably you get Obama-healthcare and SIMMFOC does not.
