[QUOTE="Duckslayer100, post: 101996, member: 1485"] What I don't understand is how folks actually attain unemployment, and not for seasonal or injury reasons. When I was laid off from my last job, I tried getting unemployment to help. Part of the deal was you had to make three contacts with NEW business that you were willing to take a job with every week. At first that wasn't difficult, but it quickly became impossible in my professional field. Especially when interviews and follow-ups rolled around. Packing all that in, plus attempting to find job openings and another firm wasn't happening. I started my new job six weeks after getting let go from my last job -- had four weeks severance so we really only panicked for two weeks. Came to find out we weren't qualified for unemployment, but whatever, I guess we didn't need it. But if I had, I would have been screwed. I would have had to start making up companies to apply for just to keep up with the three-per-week quota. [/QUOTE]
