I met my wife while happily living in another state. The first time I brought her to PA she was in awe and couldn't fathom why I would want to live anywhere else. A couple years later we moved back to PA for good. It has its issues, but it sure is pretty.
After running around on the website and calling dozens of times to not even get put on hold, I got fed up and called my rep. I talked to the woman from the office for about 10 minutes to explain the problem in simple terms, and she told me they'd take care of it and not to contact unemployment again because neither unemployment nor the state rep's office should need any further information.
I got an e-mail from the rep the next day stating they had contacted unemployment and my claim would be addressed immediately. About a week later my state rep's office called to verify that I had been paid (I had) and that was that.
A few minutes on the phone with an actual person who picks up immediately is a lot easier than dealing with trying to get ahold of unemployment.

Coming back down when the entire trail is frozen into a bobsled track is a real hoot.
