I heartily echo your sentiments VBH. This is the first time in 33 years that I drew unemployment, then to have to wait for 11 weeks to get a check was nearly more than I could bear, thank goodness for the small savings I had and the help from my son. I had to snicker though when I was talking to the unemployment people and they said the wait was because they had so many new claims and still had to maintain the current ones. Plus having to deal with the people who ran out of benefits, they were one of the reasons the unemployment rate went down.
