Last week when claiming my weekly benefits the system said my benefits are exhausted. I called and finally got someone on the phone who said it doesn't matter what is on the statements or stubs; I am out of benefit because a year has passed?!? I have been given another number but cannot get through so I am hoping to speak to someone in person at the offices today. WTF????

I still can't find a job and my husband is no longer allowed to have any overtime. A married couple I know, who work in different fields, both lost their jobs in the last month. My son applied to work in a movie theater, and was told they received hundreds of applications in one week. It's sad that people who are willing to sweep up popcorn, can't even get a job. Honestly, despite what the media says, I think we are looking ahead at some worse times than what we are experiencing now. Demetri-

It said that thier records indicated that i exhausted all state an federally funded bensfits which is true but i just did that on May 5, 2010. It also said i will be recieving a monetary determination letter that will explain my potential additional EUC benefits, followd by a separate certification notice on how to claim continued EUC benefits......ok i was wondering did anyone else recieve this? an why is that date from last year? Im hoping that this isnt something that got stuck in the mail an just getting to me...because that would suck ugh! Ok, I recieved a letter about a week an half ago dated nov, 9, 2009.

I found a part-time job ...but only about 15 hours a week. All we can do is try for some kind of income. I am literally at minimum wage but at least it's something coming in. Good luck to everyone...

I recommend you try to find a job however you can, my work is rough right now but its less stressful to have an employer than depend on a government system that is overworked and unreliable. I also did volunteer work in the interim that was relevant to my field, which helped my resume too. I went from working as a manager to working as a waitress when my unemployment ran out.
