Today, I realized that my father's weekly unemployment check is more than my bi-weekly pay check. My full time job pays less than my father's unemployment. FML

My sister makes more with unemployment than I make with an actual job....it's just stupid.

Sounds like somebody doesn't understand how unemployment works.

Yeah, this is the government's fault. All these idiot politicians making too many unemployment benefits. There's no incentive to work when you make more staying at home munching on potato chips and watching tv.

in fact he gets paid more than TWICE as much per week to be unemployed as you do for your job, since his pay is weekly and yours is every other week

And that's what's ****** about this country.

Wow, he must've been making a TON of money before he got unemployed.

He probably made more money than you when he wasn't on unemployment

Other than the obvious flaws in the great US of A's system, you get paid biweekly? I've heard of bimonthly, never the former.

welcome to America, where the only way to make good money is be unemployed or invest everything you have and eventually end up unemployed
