Frustrated with People who Don’t Do Their Jobs
I am so frustrated with people who don’t do their jobs when I can’t get a job and would never say something was done when it isn’t finished and I have confirmed it. The worst is when these people have jobs that affect others livelihoods, health or financial stability. I am one of the millions who are unemployed and are not able to get a job of any kind even a part-time stock greeting cards or something in my experience field or office administrator. The unemployment issue in this country is bad but those who are working in the departments responsible for making sure that we unemployed get what little we have coming to us are not doing their job to the best of their ability. Or maybe it is that they are not trained enough but my experience tells me it is more that they just don’t care. When you call to make sure that you have done all that you are supposed to do filled out all the paperwork, filed all the proper forms and then reported weekly and someone doesn’t finish the process on their end it is really something close to criminal. This is not an isolated incident either. It has happened several times in the past 4 years since I have been permanently unemployed or at least not permanently working. I have had several temporary positions but none that worked into a full-time permanent job. This most recent incident has been going on for a month now and once again after calling on the 17th I was told that I would have my benefits by today the 19th. I checked first thing this morning and nope nada nothing there. I called at 8am and found out that once again the person I spoke to on the 17th forgot failed didn’t do their job and my information was not finalized so now it will be another 48 hours. Now per usual I got the standard apology and no guarantee that it will be in my account by tomorrow or Saturday and with the way they work it most likely will be there on Monday. So much for the efficiency of the government staff.
I am trying to find a way to supplement our income after this round of unemployment runs out since I have no idea if I will be eligible for state benefits after this federal runs out. If any of my readers has any suggestions on how to use my internet, social networking and administrative experience to make at least a little money please send them my way.
Writing is helping so I am going to try to write more often even if it just to rant or post jokes or work on my whatifineed site. Time to get back on track and stop being a slouch.
To end this I just want to say “Do Life Now, Pay It Forward, Smell The Flowers”
