It's nearly a month since federal supplemental unemployment aid lapsed. There's no sign, however, that jobless workers in Northeast Wisconsin are ready to take advantage of some re-employment programs.  The $600 federal unemployment bonus lapsed August 1st after Congress adjourned without reaching an agreement on a second stimulus package.  Jim Golembeski, Executive Director of the Bay Area Workforce Development Board, says his office is not seeing a rush of people for job retraining programs.  He believes part of the reason is there are job options for some people.

Golembeski says some workers may start coming forward after Labor Day weekend as bills start coming due and money tightens up.
