Phin Power to you Rich... hope everything works out (again)

Hey Rich...
Sending Good Job Vibes your way....

I sat idle for about 8 weeks this year already, and the response to over 50 resume's, online apps, etc...pretty much sukked. I believe I got one.

In the recent past I managed a marina/tackle shop for over 2 years...and while idle, I applied for a PT stocking/bs job at a tackle store 2 miles from Merry Pier, pretty much had the whopping $8.50 an hour job in the bag until I filled out their application that had the question "Do you smoke?" He immediately got on the phone to his wife saying he thought he found someone more than qualified..."but he smokes". Needless to say, I didn't get the job.

So, it's back to bartending on a boat, crewing sailboats/island trips/and back at Merry Pier until I win the lottery.

Hang in...

((((Rich))))


Rich, are you able to report your work status online when claiming weekly benefits. If so you may be able to re-activate your benefits online. We can in Ohio so maybe you will be that lucky. Check to see if this is available on the UE website. All we have to do is sign up for our account by using a our social security number as logon and the benefit claim number they assign you to access. I hope it is available for you. Good luck.

((((((((((((((RICH))))))))))))))))

(((((((((((((((Rich)))))))))))))))) sorry to hear about you being laid off! Hang in there!!!! Lots of good vibes headed your way!!!!

Hey Rich...am so sorry to hear this news. Sure hope you can get those unemployment benefits coming in quickly...and even better...that you won't need them because you'll find a new job pronto. ((((Rich)))).

Sorry to hear about your job loss. Lots of good thoughts headed for you as you begin the new job search.

I HATE that every company thinks it best to let people go on a Friday. You end up like you did frustrated over the weekend unable to claim for unemployment for at least two days and feeling angry and somewhat powerless. I'm sure some study tells employers Friday is the better day, but having been there, I don't think so.

Good luck Rich. It worked out best for me in the end and I hope it does for you as well.
