Nebraska Unemployment
One of my older acquaintances, Mischa, had to file for Nebraska unemployment recently. Not that Nebraska unemployment is so bad – the Nebraska Unemployment Office, according to my friend Mischa, actually has some pretty nice people working for it, and working to help the unemployed. But I know for a fact that if someone as smart and talented as Mischa could fall into Nebraska unemployment and find herself having to dip into the unemployment fund of Nebraska, then I realize that I’m really scared for my future. I’m not as smart as my older friend, after all, and I haven’t even found a job yet. The very idea that someone better than me is currently facing Nebraska unemployment makes me doubt my own ability to find work in this state.
Of course, she claims to us that her Nebraska unemployment status has everything to do with the fact that she get fired on principle – I personally interpret that as “my boss thought I was too smart and felt threatened”. Still, I find myself relieved that the Nebraska Unemployment Office found Mischa qualified to avail of an unemployment claim, and they apparently are encouraging her to consider setting up a business of her own – so she won’t have to work for other people. As far as I can see, the Nebraska Unemployment Office is going above and beyond to ensure that everyone gets a quality of life fit for all parties involved.
