Ninety-Niners

A person who has exhausted all ninety-nine possible weeks of unemployment benefits.

"Tier 5 to Survive" has become the rallying cry of the "ninety-niners", those unemployed who have found themselves jobless for the longest period of time and have nearly or already exhausted all ninety-nine possible weeks of unemployment benefits.
