Will you go Back to WORK?

[Twangbanger]

You make it sound like we have a choice.

My job was deemed essential.

Everybody who hasn't been fired has a choice.

We just may not like some of them.

So since our professions are deemed essential and we are required to work even if we don't like it we should quit? And then not be eligible for unemployment ya know cause we quit? Not to mention I have to work 100 hrs a month to get my insurance or I have a self pay, which would be difficult with no unemployment.

If you don't want to answer I understand. Are you able to draw unemployment + the $600?

 

[Matthews]

Yes, and thankfully I got my claim in before the system was swamped. Id rather be working though honestly. Burned two 24 packs of beer in two weeks, thats a record for me

Used to work with a couple of people who did a 24 pack a day. They would come to work at 6:30 A.M. reeking of beer.

My case is a little different. My employer is open, but they won't let me come back because I had surgery 6 weeks ago, and they think I am "high risk". Even though my Doc signed a release 3 weeks ago..

 

[Matthews]

Never understood how people can consume not just high amounts of alcohol, but the sheer amount of liquid intake.

Same although I am working from home 75% of the time currently.

My question is how many people that make less than the UI +600 a week will go back to work?

The situation I look at is a worker that makes $400.00 to 700.0 a week net on a 40-60 hr week would they not make more money unemployed?

That $600 is not permanent.

 

[Clay Pigeon]

We haven't stopped working, It started with 6 days a week to keep up and now, we have worked 19 out of the last 21 days and its looking like the next 2-4 weeks will be the same.
I hit the right age this aug, my older sons enlistment is up soon unless he gets extended. I might be done this fall and turn it over to him and be done when this is back to normal...
I'm ****ing tired...

 

[Clay Pigeon]

That $600 is not permanent.

That $600 makes me ****ing ill....

 

[JCSR]

That $600 is not permanent.

For up to 4 months. Not bad money for staying home with your baby momma

Anyone who was forced out of a job they liked and wants to retain it. I imagine a lot of employers will call they people back to work and those who choose not to will be replaced.

...but sure, some people will take advantage of it.

 

[Brad69]

HoughMade,
You gotta stop making sense and I don’t know how your still a lawyer being honest and having a soul and all.

I think a loophole exists where you could be called back to work and claim you cannot find child care do Covid19 and stay on UI?

Yeah always gonna be some people abusing a system made to help people.

 

[flatlander]

Never stopped. We may not be getting as many "Customers" due to the arrest policies but I'm still employed.
