“Okay we need to get started. Will everyone please pull up the footrests on their recliner as we need to bring to order the Unemployed Union Meeting”
“Please focus your attention on the screen as this online meeting is for your benefit from the comfort of your home and your laid back seating”
As soon as the meeting was called to order, fingers flew on the keyboards as the members were outraged
The time for free money had ceased, the stimulus checks had stopped meaning this group from society could no longer remain disengaged
“How are we expected to survive?” was the predominant question lighting up the chat side of the screen.
“We have fully anticipated for this free spending administration to acknowledge our financial problem and by now to intervene”
Some of the members had rocked forward in their chairs with a furious look while cursing the digital figure on the flickering display
“We’re in the process of demanding action on this right now,” screamed the Union boss. Her voice cracking in dismay
She had taken her list of demands to the White House for immediate action but so far her ultimatums were only in discussions
She did have a plan B as attention from the Build Back Better plan was currently concentrating on voter rights as that issue could potentially provide far greater repercussions
The members mantra had been “We’ve hidden under the guise of waiting for a better opportunity to provide for us”
Unable to answer when another stimulus check might appear, the participants’ lights begin to blink off in disgust
“This Union is a joke!” wrote one. “They take us away from sleeping in once a month and can’t share a shred of good news”
“This SUCKS!” wrote another. “I’m going to be forced to drink regular grocery store coffee and cancel my appointment for new tattoos”
“Just hang in there a while longer,” stated the Union Boss. “If my plan works, the new immigrants will have all your old jobs, and we’ll be a large enough unemployed team to force the President’s hand”
“They’ll have to pay us to save face while showing the stimulus package employs all these new people and you’ll be able to continue your current lifestyle and won’t that be grand”
