What exactly is a "suitable job"? Waiting tables for $2/hr? Minimum wage jobs? Any job that doesn't pay a living wage isn't suitable for anyone. Businesses that pay well don't have any trouble finding employees.

Define suitable, to me a job isn't suitable unless wages covers basic cost of living calculated by by state, full medical benefits, and paid family leave and vacation. HOW THE 🤬 DO THE JOBS WITH THE MOST VACATION(government reps) DAYS KEEP TELLING US TO GO BACK TO WORK?

Yes. Because it's illegal to continue to collect UI if you're offered a job. That's all he means
