Quote of the week:

"Millions long for immortality who don't know what to do on a rainy afternoon."
-Susan Ertz

Question of the week:

Do I contact the Bureau of Labor to apply for unemployment benefits?

The Bureau of Labor Statistics does not administer or oversee unemployment insurance (UI) programs. Contact your State workforce agency for information. Not sure how? Use the Department of Labor's Career Onestop Service Locator.
