With the enhanced unemployment benefits I can still pay my rent but without it definitely not. Many businesses are either not reopening or reopening with limited staff. I can see a reasonable phase down plan for the enhanced unemployment benefits but to end it in July would be devastating
We need an extension of unemployment. The job market is so fierce it's almost impossible to land a job
Now the riots are destroying more jobs!
Corona virus is a scam
do they mean in numbers or the percent of the population? since there are millions more people now in the us compared to the late 20's
Were done like a well done steak.
I’ve been applying to bjs ,Target , McDonald’s, petsmart , Taco Bell, Chipotle, etc & nothing I was working at amazon but I had to leave cause of college but they weren’t allowing any transfers
There will be a lot of vans down by the river.
"It happened under h UK s watch" Donald Trump
“The police should do nothing to the protest”.That's What the US government tells to Hong Kong, even though so much looting and violence took place. So please uphold your own beliefs. And we will see how it plays out on American land.
UBI or WTF
Wow!! I can't with this!! There is a pandemic that's why job are on furlough or losses!
Literally talking a load of crap. Millions out jobs buddy step it up. Lol
Goodwill Jobs? What an insult.
Must be Trumps fault too. 😂 smdh….
How could ANYBODY even consider voting for trump in November?
He's a terrible president, but an even worse example of a human being.
Economy was one of the best ever under trump. And then the government decided they had enough of it and decided to ruin it.
I’m pretty sure the CEO of goodwill embezzled millions of dollars made from selling donations, instead of the money going back into the store and making it better and paying employees and such. That’s what a non profit is supposed to do. I don’t think goodwill is one of them. A lack of goodwill, one might say.
If you are struggling after missing 1 pay-check in April, that's enough proof that the economy was never better under Trump as we were told.
Times are changing we will prevail adapt and overcome 😉
COMPLETE BULLSHIT.
My Company has been BEGGING people to come back to work. They are happy and content living off of the Gov-ment
Lollets see if trump can recover from this….
People better demand a Basic Universal Income from Congress, before these rich Congress people really go into deep hiding. Get that safety net for yourselves when the jobs do not pan out. Or start investigating what is the best tent ⛺️ to live in with your particular environment ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
🐍 🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍 It is time for GREEDY Snake Slavery Wages Employers to go the other way.
WE just are not that into you ⚠️
Let FAIR better paying Employers get a shot this time around at the table of Commerce.
Time for RESET❗️
DOWN WITH SLAVERY WAGES ❗️❗️❗️❗️
Don’t be stupid people, Open the Economy and everything will go back to normal. Simple as that idiots
People need jobs, not training. America’s infrastructure needs to be rebuilt. Let’s rebuild it! That’s what FDR did.
But instead we’re doing retraining for jobs that just aren’t there. “Learn to code” is such a neo-liberal mantra it drives me nuts.
just wait till the 2nd wave hits, usa is gonna be destroyed 👍
Wtf do we need JOB TRAINING for when there aren’t any jobs available, you doofus?
Making America Great again……
There's a lot of people refusing to work and happily claiming unemployment and govt assistance.
Where am I supposed to work. Theres a dollar store, a McDonald's, and a gas station here. That was the only jobs before the virus
Take a look where the biggest unemployment numbers are at. The blue states where the government still won't open. Where they don't want anyone going back to work.
where is dat negro black lady
American Carnage
Trump is bad Karma man!!!! He brings bad Karma to America and the world!
Goodwill is the walmart of the donation world they treat there employees like underpaid garbage, don't trust anything they say
Any idiot gets it by now. It's been 3 long years since Trump took office. And it has been one chaos after another. I can't remember a peaceful time anymore. He said he will make America Great again. I see no greatest but disaster after disaster, chaos after chaos, and we have no friends in the world left (not even Canada). Trump has managed to destroy everything all Presidents in the past have built for America. American's lives are worst than 2008 or 1929! People live from paycheck to paycheck with "jig" jobs that are starving wages. This is called Greatness? This is called "Idiotness"!
It's all part of the plan, folks. 😉
