Default Michigan unemployment

Apparently things are so bad they have to lay off the unemployment workers which makes you wonder where they will go for unemployment benefits.

Default Re: Michigan unemployment

I have a buddy of mine that was laid off from Ford after working for them for 17 years. No retirement and a pittance for separation pay. He was on unemployment and was cussing up a storm about this just this morning.
