Snapshots "We were given the opportunity to go through the unemployment office for the federal trade act. I thought it was limited on what you were allowed to retrain in from what I'd like to have seen done. I don't know that it was managed all that well. It was a lot of money thrown out there to people with limited options. So it was either go do this or don't get any benefits type thing."
