I go to school full time at Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan. I wash dishes twice a week and get 13 hours a week. I am hoping to get more though. In the month of December and early january we lose our jobs. We are permitted to come back when the next semester starts. Anyone here ever take advantage of unemployment in this odd schenerio. I know it would be like 50 bucks a week but money is money?? I did this once when I worked at another job but I was fired involuntarally. Let me know if ya have clues, I really dont feel like asking a boss or employee, hey can we get unemployment during that time, thats just asking to be yelled at.

as long as you didn't quite or get fired with cause, you can collect UE. it usually pays 1/2 of your normal weekly pay. this is in NY, MI might be different.
yeah
Ill just make sure to get the date I return in january that is before i even try to collect it.

personally i think your university job would be pissed at you if you collected unemployment. you should have been aware when you took a job with the university that you would not work or get paid during university breaks.
just my .02

I dont
think anyone understands where im coming from. In december its the last week of class for a month and one week. The pay is min. but its nice. You sched. your classes around the hours and vise versa. I could work up to 20 if I chose but nothing really fits my classes and I dont feel like working on the weekend but i may change that shortly. I really dont mind washing dishes its not all that bad. I also get to eat all the food i want when I work there. I was just wondering if I could get free money while im off lol. It seems as though ill be able to. They let you sched your new work sched before we even are done with this semester. So ill just try to claim the weeks, I may get denied when unempl. angency sends my job the letter. I will just have to wait and see.

If you could find ANYTHING related to your field of study, it will give you an advantage getting the real job after graduation.
This will not look good to your employer.. even if you can't collect, they are still notified. If you don't want to lose the job, I wouldn't chance it.
well
since we are on the topic of employment, ive wanted to post this on here before but this is a car forum, not a job one lol. Ill say this anyway. I have a profound interest in history whether it be watching the history channel etc.
I love to write, read, study, research, and talk with other people. I hope that I can work at a museum, be a historion, be a historical researcher etc in the next few days. Problem is Saginaw MI is not too great. There are 5 museums here but none pay workers. All are internships that are non payed. Libraries never hire anyone either. I really am quite stunned sometimes as to what to do. I dont wanna be a teacher like the other 22 people in my classes I have. Im always the one guy who doesnt. I find the researching end of the field much more interesting to be the guy who does the discovering etc. I do really good in my classes etc too. I spend hours sometimes talking with my professors after class. I am not a dork lol But to stop and get to a point. I dont really know where to go. Saginaw is an industry job. My resume sucks too. 2 jobs I was fired from are manufacturing fork lifting type of jobs. The other was a package unloading job. The job I have now is cleaning dishes. If someone has some ideas help me out if you can. I know I need experience to get a high level job with my degree. Even if it is a masters degree i will have in 4 years.

Pizza Delivery. If you choose your store right, and you have a car that is good enough on gas (and reliable) it's the only way to fly. Try Pizza Hut. Around here at least, they pay the most and have the best benefits. Just stay away from small time franchisees and work somewhere corporate. I have been a delivery driver for 13 years ( my only job), and have worked for several companies so I know what I am talking about. The best places are located far away from Ghetto neighborhoods so that they are not in your delivery area. Choosing your area well allows you to do de facto "Redlining" since pizza delivery companies cannot legally exclude neighborhoods in many locations. Middle class delivery is the most consistent and the safest. That is the sort of area I chose to work in when I went back to school as it has the best tip-density. Avoid either very poor or very wealthy areas as they are least likely to tip. Trust me, once you start delivering, you won't want to go back to washing dishes.
The other good choice would be waiting tables at a large chain restaurant. Many require prior experience, but some may give you a chance. I know someone who works for The Olive Garden, and he clears $800+ a week on 35-40hrs. I would do it myself if I did not have a bad knee from a car accident 3 years ago.
