Why work?
-
D3 works for a home healthcare staffing agency. They provide caregivers to people who are in need of temporary, or 24/7, nursing care. The pay is marginal for these people, and the benefits are, basically, nonexistent.
She's having a real problem recruiting people these days because the people who used to be looking for this kind of work are finding that it's to their benefit to not work. If the government is providing unemployment coverage, childcare coverage, etc, why bother?
She's noticed this as becoming a much more prevalent trend in the last year or so.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

However, it seems that Illinois has a "Refusal to Return to Work" law.
Apparently, if someone comes to an employer and is offered a job and refuses the job, the employer can file a report with the state, disqualifying the applicant from unemployment benefits.

That’s common in a lot of states. It doesn’t ultimately help the employer find happy employees, though.

Yes, the government will give you everything
But, what if you want a little luxury every now and then?
Just steal it
That's right just grab it and run
But what about the police?
Police? What is that?
