Okay, okay, calm down everyone and don’t get awl inna tizzy! Turns out I won’t receive one dollar for that week anyway, which is just perfectly fine with me as all I want is GODDAMN CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO FILE FROM THIS POINT ON!!!
Which I hope and pray I may finally have recieved after another hour on hold today to speak with Keith, who informed that Tom, whom I spoke with on Monday, was half-crocked and what he was trying to do for me would have resulted in ADJUDICATION, wherein they would have taken two to five weeks to figure out how much to pay me. The problem wasn’t that I didn’t file for a week (although that’s a big no-no, too), it was that I had claimed too much severance pay because I misunderstood the question and included both my last week’s earnings and my holiday pay. For some reason, this threw a huge wrench in their system and the end result is that I could either deal with the 2-5 week adjudicizing, sounds painful, or I could just write off the last couple weeks, talk them through a half an hour of explaining why I misunderstood that question, how much my holiday pay really was, and receive a good healthy berating at the hands of Keith for being such a dumbfuck that I didn’t somehow psychically perceive this in the first place. I elected the latter. I’ve been a bad, bad girl. :rolleyes:
Anyway, if Keith is to be trusted, the whole fucking mess has been sorted out, I won’t receive a dime for the last three weeks, and if I file for this week Sunday morning like a good NailBunny I’ll have a check mailed to me on Monday. Works just fine for me. If I would have known this three days ago it’d saved me much stress & lost sleep. I’m not going to raise a stink about how much money I think I’m owed, because I’m willing to own my dumbfuckery, thank you Dr. Phil. And I sent out four resumes today, and five or six last week, so I feel pretty confidant I’m doing my part. I just wanted to know how to get back on track. That is ALL I wanted in the first place!!!
I’ll probably pee my pants if I actually do receive a check. Right now, I’m not sure I still believe unemployment insurance exists.
