Did I assume correctly? |
Let's see how the unemployment game goes. When you give people money, they don't look for jobs WAY below what they should be doing as far as pay and skills. In my case, I am now look at part-time office cleaning work, and I have a Masters degree. I am doing this because I don't get unemployment. A person with years of director-level experience I know is doing phone tech support for less thna $10/hr. What does the unemployment do? Well, it keeps people from sliding too far down the scale economically. But, I guess if people want this trend to continue, more power to them. This trend results in too many people with lower skils, not needed for what would do, not getting any employment.
Like, why would I accept unemployment if I could pull in $15-$20/hr IT work, when it is in my field? I wouldn't, would I? Unless sliding down that much down the economic scale is too painful for my job prospects.
