Let me guess, this new batch of employees is overwhelmingly between 20 and 30 years old?

There are a lot of people making a few hundred a week working...some are pissed their bosses are opening back up.
I dont blame them...ride that wave until its gone....then go back to $1-2-3 even $400 per week working ..why not
Because you're not thinking ahead if you think it's a good idea to ride the wave until it's over. You make yourself a liability, or as we called them in the oilfield, a slow leak. If you're in a job that you don't like, why aren't you actively looking for another one that you will like or that pays more? When all of this dust settles and people start getting hired again, those slow leaks will be the last to get hired and first to get fired if they stick with that same mentality and refuse to learn from their mistakes.

They are also admitting "off the record" that they are making more money on unemployment than they will working thanks to the $600 a week bonus.
Who didn't see this coming?

$600 a week, that's insane, who's the idiot that came up with that number.

My son was working part time at 13 bucks an hour for about $300 a week as he attends college, he is now making 730 on unemployment per week...geez

I actually told him it comes out to a messily 38k per year.... Not really any quality of life he is looking for, but hey I bet there are a lot of people who would think they won the lottery.
