[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1182039, member: 42554"] Speaking of unemployment, I've known many people who have had experiences with that unfortunately. Here, you have to file online (thereby necessitating the smartphone)and there is a two week delay til you see any money. The maximum is $240/week, about 15%of a drivers pay. Meanwhile, the bills and late fees pile up. If they kick back your application for any reason, expect another week delay. Meanwhile, the bills and late fees pile up. Any part time work you obtain will reduce your benefit, even though it doesnt come near to replacing your former income. Meanwhile, the bills and late fees pile up. About a month or two in your former employer will dispute your claim and your benefits are automatically cut off until your response is considered. Meanwhile, the bills and late fees pile up. If you need to file bankruptcy you have to wait awhile as they look at your last 6 months of income when deciding whether you can file Chapter 7 or 13 (thanks to Bush). Meanwhile, the bills and late fees pile up. If you decide to go back to school, your unemployment stops making you borrow more than you otherwise would. Meanwhile, the bills and late fees pile up. Unemployment [I]Insurance[/I] (which is not welfare) has become more like throwing someone a styrofoam cup instead of a life preserver. [/QUOTE]
