Yep… I’ve been called dumb and worse…
Never applied for any assistance and even back in college many would work summer jobs and collect unemployment when school started.
Covid has really screwed things… Realtors putting in for unemployment between sales really boosting their bottom line and nurses asking to be laid off when there is a national shortage of nursing.
The months when my hours were cut from 40 a week to 25 is when it got crazy because I was throwing away “Free” money.
I backfilled my time with PTO and maintained my income…
Many employers deemed essential still have not been able to hire… I’m referring across the board such as grocery stores, cleaners, tree companies, etc.
