[quote=Anonymous]Finding a job takes time. Give it at least 6 months- jeez. Also, her not applying for unemployment yet does not affect the total amount of money that she will be able to receive. She'll just receive it later. She will qualify for a certain total sum of money. If she earns some money from part time work, the weekly amount (for that week) will be reduced, but it won't affect the total amount she receives-- it'll be the same amount of money, just stretched over a longer period of time. I hope that makes sense. Been there, done that. I know you're well-meaning, but stop it with the emailing her links to jobs. That's not being supportive, that's ... it's like you're not trusting her to be doing all that she can. If she asks you for help, fine, but please treat her like a competent adult. [/quote]
