Dang! Why were they denying you benefits? 2+ months seems like an awful long time to have to wait for approval. I wish you the best in your job search. Something good will come out of all this. That I'm sure of.:)

They werent denying it.. they just werent approving it.. I got some story about how they are really busy and my file got shuffled around and then some people were out and I finally got a call from the guy that was gunna handle my claim last wednesday. He asked me a couple of questions.. contacted my previous employer and finished everything yesterday.

:doh: Go figure! I forgot we were talking about government workers! Incompetence at it's finest!:D I've never had that kind of trouble before, and I've drawn benefits numerous times.:( I'm just glad you're finally gonna receive those benefits you deserve.

I'm glad too. Some people don't understand what its like to come under hard times. Gotta walk in those shoes. I'd be bragging too.

My first job right out of high school i went to work for Train over in Tyler. I worked there 8 years and got laid off for 4 years in a row. I liked the break about in November to Feb every year. Unemployment was very nice. So i know how you feel.

Keep up the good fight.
