LOL

You mad bro?

Let me guess, you're American? America has this fucking disturbing and weird obsession with work
'Work culture'
If you're not working you're a loser, if you're not working you're not contributing, etc etc
It's very sad, you let your employers play you and you're grateful for it
Keep it up, all that 'hard work' will eventually 'pay off'!

And I'm saying this as an American myself. The system is skewed all to hell, and we spend way too much time at work.

Gee, if only either more people chipped in or at least quit asking for things to happen that require work, maybe we could all knock off by Thursday. Sadly, we also live in an "I want everything perfect" culture that doesn't think they should chip in, so the few of us witha work ethic get to work ourselves to death for the people that don't want to try.

you can elect to have this taken out of your payment, it's already taken out of mine. In fact they make a huge deal about it when you sign up for payments.

I don't think many people are going to be caught off guard

That means the state gives you $137

That means you were making like $200 a week before max

You're still balling in comparison.

Lol the "system" of working to eat has been around as long as the human race has. Move to another country and see if they will just let you sit on your ass and do nothing and still get paid. Working for money is not an exclusively American concept lmao.

I'm begging to wonder if this is the real world any more. I'm almost thinking I accidentally invested some Chinese bath salts like a year ago and I've been tripping, or I'm gonna wake up and it is 2019 again

I don't care about a tax refund, I just dont wanna pay it back. I wasn't the one who shut my job down so it'd be pretty bogus to make people pay all their unemployment back.

It should definitely go down over time. I've heard of several people easily able to start working without any issues, but they're riding it out for the extra cash even though that money should be for the people who literally cannot work at all.

I have a family so when I was laid off it felt good to still have income and be able to take care of my kids. Not have to worry about mortgage.

Now, I would have loved to have taken this all the way to August but I began looking for work once my kids school ended.

I go back to work tomorrow. Feels pretty good but am sad that I won't see my family as much.

I have no sympathy for people who ride the free boat till the end and then complain they can't find a job.

Unemployment: $600/wk
CARES Act: $600/we
Plus 30% of whatever you were making a week at your previous job.

I'm not going to Google the numbers for you because you're a smart boy.
