I had a job for awhile and then I quit to go back to school, and they were not accepting of the resignation so I applied for unemployment just to say fuck them and see if I could get it.

In fact I did get it however don’t expect too much. I believe they gave me something like 24% of my weekly income. So going from 450/week I only got 145/week.

Also it only lasts for 26 weeks…
