Well since my last post i got laid off completely. Guess they considered me non essential. But since they told me to file unemployment, theyve kept calling me in for this and that. Guess i was more essential than they realized. I think theyre talking advantage of situation, shifting labor costs to govt and still getting benefit of my abilities. Load of crap.
Quoted from Electronmagic:What would happen if you said no?
Wi law states i must not decline work if offered, so they could mess with my unemployment. BUT every dollar i earn at work reduces the amount of unemployment also. So they can screw with me on both ends by making me work and costing me money. Not cool. I qualify for the max payment of $370 a week. A fraction of what i made. I get called in for work tho and the state reduces the 370. After 10 hrs or so i lose all the 370. How is that fair? And that 10 hrs of work is less than 370. So i end taking home say 200 for the week where i was unemployed by my employers decision, yet was made to help them by the law. Employer gets what they need done for pennies on the dollar at my expense. I cant pay the bills now, yet if i quit i dont get unemployment either so im trapped.
