SIOUX FALLS, S.D. Ashley Dorch thought of her children first when she was laid off Dec. 1
It’s only been about two weeks since she was let go as assistant director of catering at the Best Western Plus Ramkota Hotel. But, already, she’s applied for 20 jobs.
The single mother has only heard back from two, but wasn’t offered a position at either to help support her family including her 10-, 5- and 4-year-old children. She hasn’t heard back from the unemployment office yet either.
