If you'll indulge me in a Family Guy-type setup, this reminds me of the time where I applied to work part time at an ammunition plant right as *gestures wildly* everything the last 2.5 years started happening, and by the time I started trying to figure out whether to contact the plant or the hiring agency, unemployment magically went from "Half of what I could make working there weekly" to "TWICE what I could make working there weekly."
