Common sense. I lost my job in 09 when the company for which I worked fired 35% of it’s workforce. I’ve always budgeted carefully. Got a part time job to supplement unemployment and also worked barter to pay for my horse expenses.
Since the job I lost was sucking the life out of me I actually felt much better for losing it and full time employment at a job I really like came in six months.
How much were you allowed to work part-time without cutting into your unemployment benefits? Was it really worth it?
