You can also collect partial unemployment. Work there 2 days and get unemployment for the rest of the money. My friend is doing this right now. She was making $32. and hr at her job, and then got laid off and took the unemployment. Now she works for a temp place 2 days a wk for $15 an hr. The unemployment kicks in the rest to bring her up to what full unemployment was. She makes the same as the unemployment but works 2 of the days. Some of our friends said she was crazy to work when she can just get the money for free, since she isn't gaining any money. But she is trying to get the temp job for real.
