[quote=Anonymous]Oh for the love of...

An employer who can afford a household employee so long as s/he retains his/her OWN employment is doing nothing wrong. I would have to make a lot of adjustments to my standard of living if I lost my job and didn't foresee a new one being easily attainable, it's no crime to carry a little debt (in most instances it is preferable than draining your savings to pay it off).

OP, I'm really sorry for you, but I don't think your MB did anything wrong. She's probably scared and stressed and is doing the best she can by trying to help you find a new position and I'm sure you can count on her reference to be glowing. Take it on the chin, thank her for her help (and hold her to it - ask her to spread your name around to her friends and former colleagues), and if you need to file for unemployment, do so. We all pay taxes for exactly this reason: so when we need help, we can access it. It's not a point of shame. Assuming you've been working legally for a while, this is what all those withholdings were for. Well, this and SS (hopefully).

Good luck![/quote]
