Shockingly Dysfunctional : Mass Unemployment System Leaves People Struggling Amid Pandemic Job Losses A sign announces the closure of an unemployment walk-in center in Boston due to the coronavirus pandemic on May 9, 2020. Michael Dwyer/AP Unemployment Insurance Delays Michael Smith, 35, thought things were bad in March when the pandemic hit. He lost his job as a bartender, and his dream of buying a house for his young family disappeared. Smith, who lives in Revere, started collecting unemployment and spending down the money he and his wife had put away for the house. But when December arrived, Smith said, he realized things could get a lot worse. After finding a few months of short-term work, Smith’s hours were slashed, and he needed to file unemployment claims again. Yet, this time, he was not hearing anything back from Massachusetts’ Department of Unemployment Assistance (DUA).
