12 minimum. And servers in restaurants shouldn't have to claim their tips! There is hwy robbery going on in these restaurants paying servers like 3 dollars an hour + tips they have to claim. Ask your server what their wage is. You'll be shocked. IHOP does this!

I'm a US ARMY veteran. 🇺🇸 I am now 63 years old and have worked as a medical assistant for 38 years as a civilian. The medical practice I worked for closed the doors on June 30. Trying to get employment when they see your age is very disheartening. I FINALLY starting getting unemployment checks last week..(6 weeks after the fact) and now the unemployment office has summoned me to an interview to see if I qualify to continue receiving benefits. Has anyone else had this happen? #jobsearch #unemployment #healthcare #advice

Have you felt overwhelmed or anxious about job seeking?

This happened to me last year. I started to feel SO overwhelmed about future prospects that I would procrastinate - and then stop looking.

Have you experienced this? And how did you get over it? #jobsearch #OVERCOME

Has anyone else unemployment account has them locked out?

Has anyone had trouble with filing their claims last week and today. I have been trying to claim my weeks and on the first try it said that all my allotted tries have been used. Which I know my password and it said it on the first try. I can't get through on the phone and it keeps hanging up due to high call volumes. I haven't been able to reach anyone since last week. Now I have unnecessary late charges. #unemployment #advice

Call at 7:30 AM in the morning and have your phone on speaker and wait!! You’ll get somebody to answer/pick up your call in about 3 to 4 hours!! Just be patient and wait!! Is worth it, somebody will answer!!! The unemployment Dept is understaff!! And everybody is trying to reach them!!! Over 57,000 people got their account lock out!!! Because of breach of security in the system!!!!Be patient and try it this way!!!!

I just settled for being old and smart, because people will run out of water, people will run out of good food, power grids will fail, crops will fail, and oxygen will be depleted by smoke from fires and volcanoes. I really don't worry because I can bypass all that just because I know how and young engineers are still starching their heads wondering how to out smart acid rain, pollution, and plastic in everything that lives! Is there a job for me? Nope! I don't have a degree, they don't hand them out for six grade drop outs with a 178 IQ!

Apply for something you have never done. It may not pay to start what you are expecting, but as you learn the position raises are possible.

Have you ever quit your job?

How did you go about it? Did you do it professionally? Or was it an elaborate hurrah?!

No judgment either way, just interested in hearing some stories 😉
