TALLAHASSEE, Fla. â All Gail McDermott can do right now is wait.
âAt first you wanna cry and then itâs so ridiculous you donât know what to do,â McDermott said. âI mean itâs laughable.â
When she first filed for unemployment last March, she, like so many others, waited weeks to be deemed eligible or ineligible for benefits.
