The state police said it will be an 8 hour wait from the back of the line to speak to a state employee about unemployment.
Like yesterday, it’s been cut into two lines. Those that didn’t make it before around 9:45 have to give their name and number and hope for a call.
Actually it sounds like it was closer to 9. Police are handing out water to people who made it in the back of the line. They’re expecting to be here until 4.
These folks are the lucky ones. Even if they have to wait all day, they’ll still get seen. Everyone else had to give their name to a clipboard.
Sounds like the state will be doing this for the rest of the week. They’re ironing out the details over whether it will still be located here.
They’re now setting up a tent to get people shade.
The line is still very long and people are still getting turned away. Every time someone comes out of the education center there’s a cheer.
