It was Monday to Friday, but I was spitting the hours with someone, so neither of us ever had 40. -- nm - loosilu Nov 3, 12:25 7
- so, it was the fact that you were working, not the fact that you signed up for a temp agency, which made you not get benefits. - znufrii Nov 3, 12:30 3
  - Here's what they said. Because I was signed up at the agency, I would have to PROVE that I called the agency every day to inquire whether there was - loosilu Nov 3, 12:31 2
    - nowadays, all you have to do is send in your resume to their online job bank, you don't have to prove you looked for sh!t. -- nm - znufrii Nov 3, 12:32 1
      - oh, that's exactly what we were told at the start. - loosilu Nov 3, 12:36
- (not that it should have mattered, we were promised a temp job wouldn't hurt our UI eligibility) -- nm - loosilu Nov 3, 12:26 2
  - i get that, but, if i'm working 36 hours a week at a temp job, i really don't think i should be getting my UI money on top of that. - Andie Nov 3, 12:28 1
    - I didn't. I mean, when that job ended, I was no longer eligible for UI, even though they promised I would be. -- nm - loosilu Nov 3, 12:29
