as a struggling actor,i need all the breaks i can get.

You have thrown in the towel before you have even tried.If they fight against you fight back and stand up for yourself.

Anyone want to translate that.

You should be eligible for unemployment benefits if you were laid off. Apply and find out. You've got time to do it now.

Not sure how they will deal with 2 part time jobs as some states only offer benefits to full time workers.

this is your chance to start that grocery shoppin biz

people give you a list and you go buy what is on the list and deliver to their door , you get 25 bucks or 10 % whatever is more.

Lots of places hiring like Wally World and grocery stores I’d start looking around.

you could use a break today..at McDonalds

Dang that sucks.

Wish I was on unemployment right now I would be making way more money! I'm self employed so not eligible, although things really went in the tank for me. Been a tough month.

You might be eligible for partial benefits but you won't know until you try! If you state Covid-19 as the reason for the layoff, you should be eligible. A lot depends on factors such as how many days are you still working at the other job?

I'll give it a shot: " I just got laid off one part time job. Lots of people have lost jobs this week and that is very bad. __________ <<< (No idea what he was trying to say after that)...the metal factory is not receiving orders anymore. I called unemployment, as well as emailed them. All this talk of losing jobs because of COVID-19 and then getting an unemployment bonus of $600 is BS. It's something I have to wait too long for. I was told that I have to subtract the money I make from my other part time job from the unemployment check I would receive, assuming I even get it. The temp agency I have my other job through will definitely protest, so I will get the shaft with no lube. Might be better to forget unemployment and get $100 of food stamps a month.

It call care act. I just found it. Nothing do with State, maybe get additional money comes though, I off 1 job till 27 th, I got go ahead this time to file unemployment ftom. Temp agency. Lot jobs went down tubes this week especally area, it fed stuff, I owe back taxes. I be lucky get additional money if it does happen , unless nothing do it, irs withholds soacil security if owe taxes they told me

With the schools closed there should be openings for online English tutors.

With all the "wet markets" closing down,there might be a surge in demand for coonmeat on a stick.
I'd check into that.

Coonman, this may be a little off topic but do you have a girlfriend?

That reminds me of a buddy of mine.
He said times were so tough he was going to have to make his woman go out and get a job.
And if it gets worse he may have to go look for one himself.

Till they find out he don't pay his taxes!

As long as he doesn’t speed through town on his way to work he should be ok.

go eat your beets

If you were paying attention I never got them.

Coonman, just file your claim to find out. That is the only way to find out. Do yourself a favor, and get away from the temp agency, if you can. It can be very hard to do, I know, but you have to find employment where someone else is not sucking your wages out of your pocket.
Good luck and I hope you get it!

People on unemployment in NY are now in some instances making more than they were working. They are getting their regular uib and another $600/week supplement on top of that

Unreal

Dollar General is looking for employees. $12.50/hr

Just filed yesterday in wisconsin. $370 a week. Less than half my paycheck. Still have a waiting week. People who think people on unemployment are goofy. Or is it just our idiot governor?

Reading this thread....is Awesome ! When I got to Corkys Post....an onion ring came out my nose........lol

If your State is paying you State unemployment benefits, you should be eligible for the $600 federal stimulus unemployment on top of that. Look into it.

Mine is just partial claim, the additional money is uncertain an nothing to do with your unemployment check. It is maybe. There is 3 week wait. Like may bfore I get check. If everything go right. No protest from other employer who still working for who likely well. Another 3 week delay. I figgure loosing $300 plus in 2 wk layoff. I have be pretty desperate to work local Walmart or some low job for $11,w Walmart is covid hangout, I scared covid at clesner job I have. They wont buy any garbage bags an dump them in 1 or 2 cans an then dumpster an disenfevtant esch garbage can takes long time

Its time to hit the plasma center!!

Or go look for deer sheds during the hours when you were working at the factory, if your knee can hold out. Lots of fresh air, your own boss, might get more trapping territory talking to landowners. I don't know what covid has don to the Chinese desire and price for antler, but if its still up around $8 a pound for fresh bone, it might be fun. Maybe more fun than posting on trapper man-- if that can be possible...

BW,you will get 970.00 a week.370.00plus the $600.00 a week from the stimulus package.

I was laid off a couple weeks ago but my former employer is stretching my severance out over the next month, so I don't qualify for unemployment benefits until then. I haven't seen anything about the $600 being paid out though, only the $370 I qualify for through the state, but that's not getting paid because of the way my severance is being paid. But maybe that's because it's a federal payment? Idk, I've worked the last 10 years and never had to deal with unemployment.

Unemployment could top the great depression %'s in the coming months......lots of folks were furloughed with pay for now.....

one of these days i'll learn to keep sitting on my hands and not open these

In this case ,safer for society than the sperm bank I guess.

Your employer stretching out the payments will delay ui but IF your layoff is due to Covid19 and you indicated that when you filed, you should be eligible for your state benefits and the $600 federal. ... at least in NY.... the $600 became effective 4/5. That's what the state is telling us right now.

Best one all day, corky! Thank you

LMAO.....your killing me...

Tlguy-Sometimes it is best to call your own State's Unemployment line the get the straight story on such things. I know that Wisconsin is swamped right now so plan on camping out on the phone but it might be worth your while.

Moosetrot

I don't know about other states. Here in Wisconsin. Unemployment is paid out by the state. However it is funded by employers paying into it. At least a fair amount is.

In Iowa there saying the additional funds are nothing do with ur unemployment an fed program, funds are not available at this time. An uncertain when or if well be. Just that trump sign it, go online an look it up on ur unemployment for state.wouldnt surprise me if this an stimlous an everthing fall though an nothing

Coonman, I know guys who got the six hundred extra this week on their Unemployment.

I'm trying to be nice when I say this but try not to be so negative and go file a claim. Worse thing that can happen is you get denied. If you are able to open a claim you will get $600 a week stimulus.

Maybe they are allowing so much a state an not come Iowa yet. If fed take it from me for back taxes owed on unemployment years back where never elected to have tax tooken out. An added up to lot, I hope they just take extra care act an stimlous money , not whole unemployment check, i got $351 for partial claim for 2 weeks back jabuary, I thinking it just effect the extra fed money if it's keep it back from back taxes, like a marker on ur name in irs computer ?

Apply for a small business loan and start an ADC business.
Seems to me it is something in life you enjoy, so go for the thing you enjoy and build a career out of it.
Or is that to much work as well?

pay off the back taxes and open up youre opportunities.they wont go away.contact a co that will negotiate a settlement with payments.

I heard here in Pa. that people are waiting weeks for a check. Hope you make out.

Truer words never spoken.

and i'm the bully.

No, that was me for questioning if I understood him correctly before giving him good advise.

Same crap, different day.

If you sign up and get unemployment you will get $600 dollars extra for 4 weeks. I f they take all or part of it for back taxes at least that problem is off you back. By the way just curious but as little as you say you make how do you owe taxes? Why not go to H@R block and let them look at your problem they don't charge for advise.AND DON'T SAY IT WILL COST TO MUCH IN GAS TO DRIVE THERE.

but

Yeabut…..

My wife is getting unemployment and she did not get the extra $600

Sounds like the extra $600 is just getting started, but will be paid retroactively to a couple weeks ago.

Wait an see if happens. I wouldnt get excited about it , maybe not. At minuim, 3 week wait unployment. I say longer. Hopefully can file on phone. No computer access. Contact them iffy
