I knew someone will end up criticizing me.

So I decided to respond back.

The requirements to get unemployment is, you have to look for a job and prove it. So when I collect unemployment, I have to continue looking for a job. The unemployment will only last for 6 months only. (at least in California)

They are very strict when you collect unemployment. They do that to make sure no one try to take advantage of it.

I have some money saved up just in case they want to dispute something and if there's a delay in the unemployment check.

As for your taxes, if you don't get yourself fired, the company I used to work for have to put in a certain percentage into your unemployment check. I am not sure how much it is.

Before I got the job where I am at, it took me almost a year before I got a "career job". So it's not easy to get a job.

If you find it easy to get a job than all powers to you. Some people are incapable to get a job as easy as you can.

Thanks for all the kinds words here. I hope to get another "career job" soon and I hope to be back here again in the future.

Secrecyguy, we do really appreciate all you have done. Your posts and comparison chart have helped many here.

If you note my earlier post, you could stay with your BB and with us, just lose the data plan for now. You aren't going to be able to sell your Pearl for much.

Please DO go back to school. Your English skills, at least in your writing, could use some tweaking. It could help you find that "career job" sooner. I mean no offense; just trying to help you.

Ok... this is my last day here. It was great being here. I hope to come back here again and see everyone here again in the future.

My phone is now ebay. You can click on the link from my first post. It will only take you to my account since we are not allow to post ebay auctions here. Once you are at my account, from there you should know where to go to get to my auction.

Come back soon...you'll be missed!

Good luck bud.

Good luck sweetie!

I hope all works out well for you. I will be saying a prayer for your next steps.

Come back and see us here and there.
