So I've kissed major for 8 months, went in when they called, only 2 well reasoned call outs, and listened to "you'll be full time by the end of the month" since December(never did..) And got let go Friday. I understand it wasn't due to performance or anthing (state inspection, I didn't have fingerprints done; didn't know it was state req and the date we scheduled in Marchish they scheduled my to work and never got rescheduled. They got a fine, I got let go). Working PT usually 5/week using 40 miles in gas each day with a 12mpg mercury mountaineer (pre-job vehicle), trying to pay for surgery (lets face it, Cigna sucks, and this surgery/appts/vitamins/NUT req's aint cheap!) and wedding, and barely making the bills the past month or so, I'm ticked. ESP after they hassled me about pre admission telling me I had to reschedule it (the week AFTER I told them and 4 days prior to the appt) or they would have to hire a new person (in which I found out fri they hired 3 anyway). Now I'm broke(er) and I have this surgery Wed. I have 2 jobs looking into getting me in (don't really hate em, but not my 1st pick of the resumes I sent. Money is money though!) but it's an awful time to really need more interviews ): what are NJ unemployment req's? Lol as if I didn't have enough on my plate as it is!!! (no pun intended!)
