Question

It took me a couple of years to save 3 months of living expenses but now my company is closing. I’m still scheduled to work this weekend (hopefully). I’m thankful that I have some money saved (thanks TBM & DR families) but now that it’s in the bank, I don’t ever wanna spend it (any of you know what I’m talking about? )  I’ve been applying & sending resumés online. I hope I don’t have to be out of a pay check before getting another job  

Answer 1

Good luck!  

Answer 2

I hope you find something you love soon. In the meantime, you can quite possibly make good money, doing DoorDash and or Grubhub, depending on your market.  

Answer 3

Can you get unemployment to help out while you look? I know a number of people making more on unemployment than they were working.

@hoot758 2 of my coworkers who got laid off first were approved but the other 2 weren’t. Idk what criteria they have to meet when they didn’t have other side jobs.  

Answer 4

Good luck  

Answer 5

Apply for unemployment and reach out to your local job center. They can help you with your resume and provide job leads.

@behring I plan on doing that the moment I get a pink slip. I’m still “employed” until I hear from HR. My next shift is not until Saturday night.
