So basically she was getting more in unemployment than she made working plus all the other $$$ they have been throwing at her and she still needs help?
Time to get back to work.
Sucks to live in a communist state. In this case, not so easy to vote with your feet either. I guess knowing your State gov ahead of time would help you get out sooner when you can afford it would have been the thing to do.
Time to get a job, you bums!!!
Some semblance of normalcy, I say
These types of articles always boggle my mind. They go out and find a sob story or two to tug on heartstrings.
I have zero sympathy. ZERO. Are there no other minimum wage jobs in Hawaii?
There are thousands of Help Wanted signs around here. The local Arbys is paying a $300 sign-on bonus! A sign-on bonus for fast food work! Every small business person I talk to cannot keep up with their demand or workload. The local Walmart has way fewer checkers than they need forcing you to the self-checkout lines. I asked a woman helping at self-checkout and she said new hires last a few days or a couple of weeks and quit.
I read earlier today or yesterday that all the bennies available today can add up to the equivalent of a $100,000 job. It’s no wonder nobody is working.
The job numbers were abysmal.
The “COVID safety net” is a hammock.
I’m more concerned about the untold millions of business owners who were run out of business by an orchestrated plandemic. Not to mention the foreclosures on rental properties.
“Women and children hardest hit”
Never a story about the small business owner who is working to save their business without any government help and struggling to obey government emergency Edicts which attempt to close the business down.
Hey, Mary, who’d you vote for?
The Eviction Ban is a Federal TAKING, is UNCONSTITUTIONAL, and the Feds OWE MONEY TO PROPERTY OWNERS for the first Eviction Ban!
Gee, was she also supporting her fatally ill mother and Mom’s 18 other kids? What about the 12 itinerant fathers, most of whom, are handicapped, biracial, bisexual and ostracized by society, haven’t eaten in weeks, homeless, etc.?? C’mon AP, you’re losing it. Make those tears come!
"Add in the Trumpist Republicans repealing the 13th Amendment and a new era of hardship will be starting!" (/AP)
Hawaii’s insane governor is the source of her troubles.
You mean Congress and govt employees are going to have to find jobs for a change?
If your on anytype of government assistance you should be at the front of the line for the vaccine. They want to thin the herd, well that’s a good place to start.
VAX the LAX!
she might want to consider a career change seeing how Hawaii came out the other day and said they wanted less tourism
hotel maids generally work from 6am to 1pm. leaving plenty of time for jobhunting. It’s a physical job, as physical as a nurses aide job, very similar skills, but nursing homes almost always have set full-time shifts, and probably more job opportunities with better pay than hotels. With 44 nursing homes in Hawaii, most with 5 star ratings, it would be the better bet for steady full time low-skill employment over a seasonal hotel.
Who wants to bet that when these programs end and people are FORCED to go back to work, the Bxjinng Administration will brag about how many people they put back to work? And claim all these new jobs were added.
