Friend of mines daughter is making the most.
She was laid off her job and normally makes $300 before taxes week.
Now unemployment paid her $152 plus $600 fed assistance.
So she now makes $752? She plans on looking for a job whenever the assistance runs out rather than looking for a job currently.
Strange times indeed. Unsure how it is in other areas but around us there are a lot of hiring companies for essential workers.
Problem is the jobs start at $11 to $16 per hour so people on assistance would take a "pay" cut.
