- Comment on Fewer People 55-And-Over Choose To Work. But Why? 4 days ago:
Searching for work means they’re receiving unemployment benefits. My benefits ran out six to eight months ago. I am not considered unemployed.
The department of labour defines it as anyone receiving benefits or still seeking employment. Seeking employment is defined as making specific efforts to find a job in the last 4 weeks. So no, that is not correct.
And how does the department of labor measure the number of people still seeking employment. What data are they gathering to measure that. Where are they getting it?
www.bls.gov/cps/cps_htgm.htm#unemployed
People are classified as unemployed if they do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the prior 4 weeks, and are currently available for work. Actively looking for work may consist of any of the following activities:
- Contacting:
- An employer directly or having a job interview
- A public or private employment agency
- Friends or relatives
- A school or university employment center
- Submitting resumes or filling out applications
- Placing or answering job advertisements
- Checking union or professional registers
- Some other means of active job search
Passive methods of job search do not have the potential to connect job seekers with potential employers and therefore do not qualify as active job search methods. Examples of passive methods include attending a job training program or course, or merely reading about job openings that are posted in newspapers or on the Internet.
Who is not in the labor force?
As mentioned previously, the labor force is made up of the employed and the unemployed. The remainder—those who have no job and are not looking for one—are counted as not in the labor force.
A series of questions is asked each month of persons not in the labor force to obtain information about their desire for work, the reasons why they had not looked for work in the last 4 weeks, their prior job search, and their availability for work
I have never seen such a questionnaire when I was unemplyed past being able to collect benefits. 4 weeks after my unemployment ran out I become considered “not in the labor force”. There is no followup program to identify people who are no longer considered in the labor force, yet are still seeking work.

- Comment on Local Walmart just installed cameras in the aisles… 4 weeks ago:
Have you ever seen the security room at a Walmart? If you ever thought you weren’t on camera in a Walmart, you were. It’s like a casino.
That particular camera looks like it is in a locking case, usually for hight theft items. The bizarre thing here is why the extra security on Sugar in the Raw and what looks like maybe Stevia.

I always told my kids not to stand or say it and to explain to the teacher that they do not swear allegiance to a flag with arbitrary meaning.
They probably still did it, but I made sure they knee they didn’t have to and why I disagreed with it. Still get to make their own, informed, choices.

Good luck, I hope it never gets bad for you but that’s usually a question of when, not if.
