My last job, since it was a private school, wasn't obligated to pay for unemployment and stuff like that. Therefore I cannot file.
Argh. You're the second person I've met recently with that problem. It bugs me to no end - you may not be able to offer your employees much security, but providing basic unemployment insurance is not tremendously expensive.
The first person I met was employed by a church that had no problem paying their pastor (who was also a published author) over $100k. They could afford that but couldn't afford to pay unemployment insurance for the staff. It just frosts me. I'm still old school enough to think that you need to provide some basics for your people.
That is my situation as well. I also don't have health insurance, which is why I pray this ear thing is temporary....(I'm a church secretary.)

Sorry. I wish folks would realize they have some responsibilities to others.

I just has a thought: wouldn't it be creepy if people did have eyes in the back of their heads?
I'm convinced my mother really did.

Geez. I never realized how common this is. We're churches, for cryin' out loud and we don't provide for our own. I thought we were supposed to set an example.

Honestly, I LOVE what I do and that I can do that work for a church makes it so much better, but I really NEED the pay and insurance. I mean, if some day I marry someone RICH, I'd keep doing what I do where I am just to benefit the church for the glory of God. Being a secretary is my spiritual gift..........or so I think.

Don't let my current bad attitude influence you. I'm guessing I might be hypersensitive to the issue right now. Our church secretary used to have a 6 figure income and gave it up to do this. It really can be a cool job. She loves it.
