Pluggers by Rick McKee for September 14, 2023

What? There’s another place to look?

Don’t need that anymore. I can finally say I am done with work!

Unemployment required that I apply for at least two jobs per week to get my benefits. I really tried to get a job but only got interest from a company in New Zealand.

Mean time;

“President Biden faces growing questions about the appointment of a Democratic donor to oversee billions of dollars in unemployment benefits despite her role at a state agency that lost hundreds of millions in coronavirus relief funds to Nigerian scammers.

Suzi LeVine departed Washington state’s Employment Security Department last month, leaving behind a trail of audits and questions about how $600 million of unemployment funds could be siphoned off by cybercriminals.".

Seattle Times…..

Eh me job is a picanic baskets stea…er…dealer.

That’s how it was done …. 25 years ago ;-)

Going up?

In Chicago (per the late Mike Royko) patronage workers were given jobs as elevator operators even in places where the elevators had push buttons anyone could use.

In my 52 year career, I never filled out an application for a job I got.

For a plugger, maybe grain elevator operator

Yak, I’m right behind you!

well, it does have it’s ups and downs

Eh, elevator operator job had it’s ups and downs. None left that I know off as most all elevators I been in were rider operated.

lots of jobs going that direction in today’s screwed up world – check out person – order taker – book writer – recording artist – movie maker – musician, and on and on and on – A I and lots of government “help” will either make our world worse Or make it worser (go for it grammar Czars) LOL

Word of mouth and being underfoot when someone was needed.

Elevator operator? A career sure to have it’s ups and downs.

Out here lots of people operate elevators, the grain kind

He can’t read those ads. They’re classified.

Not many pluggers ever got a job from the bulletin board at the UI office.

I’m old enough to remember a store with an elevator operator!

farting in an elevator is wrong on so many levels

This one is a top 10er.

That career has a lot of Ups and Downs.

Sometimes there is no other place to go. . . .

Elevator repair is actually a pretty high paying job that doesn’t require a college degree.

It has its ups and downs…..

“Indeed” you are… Pun intended.

My first full-time job was as a freight elevator operator!

That’s one way to move up in the world!

Heard during that job interview: “Days will have their ups and downs.”

It has its ups and downs most days.
