Although, this has become part of the conversation this
OK . . . Just as an FYI: there are a few things to absolutely "know" if you are or have just become "Unemployed" . . .
1) "Benefits" are based upon your last salary . . .
2) You can "work" part-time while collecting "Benefits" - as long as "You" do not exceed a specific amount . .
3) Excepting Full-time work at a lower salary - if you become "unemployed" again within a certain time frame "Your" Unemployment benefits are reduced base on THAT amount you're earning, not your previous salary . . .
Given this information - You should also know that most major Department Stores (here would be Macy's, Caldores, Kohl's, etc.) and other major stores (like Targets. K-mart, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes. etc.) are accepting employment applications for the "Holidays," especially if You are the one who mentions it that is why you are applying and you are willing to work any schedule . . . Some have even started Hiring those that have mentioned this, but they make sure you know it is just for the "Holidays" (however, if they find you "employable" they may keep you on past then - you never know

) . . .
AGAIN - This is just an FYI . . . AND remember "you" just might do better on Unemployment alone, until you can find a "Real" JOB that you want and pays you for your work . . . there was a story in the national news about this too, a Man (with a family) who took a temporary job at a lower salary - job was done and was then laid off - and when he went back to claim his Unemployment benifits they lowered his check; outcome was he lost his home when he could no longer pay the mortgage . . . However, it is something to consider if cash flow is low . . .
