Yeah, that's what I wanna know. 24 hrs/wk volunteering, 16 hrs/wk job hunting, I guess. GA has 10% unemployment rate - or is plainly saying there are no jobs, don't bother looking.

Georgia also has a work program for people on UI. They train people at various industries then they can get hired or let go at the end. Again, there is little time for job-hunting.
