[quote=Anonymous]My apologies. I just need to vent about the absurdly byzantine unemployment system that was obviously constructed in such a way as to frustrate and confuse people in order to not file for the unemployment insurance that they have paid into for years.

Recently laid off trump casualty here who lives in MD but works in VA. It's been well over 20 years that I have had to file for unemployment, but whomever created this sadistic system in the Commonwealth deserves to be put on a plane to El Salvador.

You go onto the website to log in your information.
It freezes up when you enter your state information and tells you to call VEC.
You call, get a recording then have to wait for hours until someone calls you back.
You speak to someone, then you wait for days until you get 5 different letters in the mail.
You have to fill out the forms and mail them (recommended via certified) to Richmond and wait. 
Maybe 2 weeks later you will receive a payment.

Lord help you if you actually go in person to a branch office where the only thing the employees do there is tell you to sit at a computer and log your information into it, all the while being as rude and as condescending as humanly possible.

When did the Commonwealth switch to this system?
It sure wasn't this way 20 years ago. [/quote]
