but my point was... that I said a long time ago in a lot of posts is the issue is... most people live paycheck to paycheck... soooo... the hardest part for the government is going to... how do we slot the funds for teachers etc.. that we are telling that you CAN'T go to work... now if you say you can't you should have to pay for their utilities too

and you should, but thats a hard road to go down and its a slippery slope and a hard thing to figure out...

0 confirmed cases in the area. Overreaction.

no cases here ... like in the local area i'm at either.. I think its over reaction too.. and you are in the US right?

upstate NY

yeah my dads in upstate NY.. as far as pay and stuff he's 70 so he's been retired for a bit...

I live in michigan and theres nothing, that I know of here... but yeah so you're saying you can't go to work... for how long have you been out of work, without a paycheck?

starts Monday for a month but could be longer

because I remember they used to pay my dad every 2 weeks... thats how broke we were... and that was in NY and he was a public school teacher

yes i get paid every 2 weeks

they really need to figure something like that out for people like you... I don't know if you have kids or are married or not, you don't have to tell me... but even if you don't... you probably only have a few weeks worth of bill money saved up... and even if they let you go to work after that...


who in the fuck is going to reimburse you for that? you should be reimbursed.

i wonder if i should look into unemployment. probably

well if all of this goes to total and complete shit the unemployment office wont be going

who are you going to talk to about unemployment, those people are at home not getting paid either

yea you can get unemployment

are you a teacher? i thought teachers get paid for goofy shit like this anyways? it seems like they're never working

yeah you sound really dumb... if there is something I know about its about public hs teachers and what they make

im a main office secretary basically

wtf I thought you said you were a teacher

so you're like a secretary that fields calls... thats not the same thing nigga

well its still the same I guess if you're forced to not be able to work, the goverment should try to figure out how to pay your bills... again... an extremely hard thing to do

file for unemployment. that's the government paying your bills. you are laid off for a month basically. that's what unemployment is there for.

All you guys talking about how there’s no cases near you... do you realise how little testing is being done? It’s like 23 people per million in the US and that’s wayyyyyy behind any other developed nation. An overwhelming number of the new cases in Aus the last few days are people that came here from the US. There’s serious debate about imposing a travel ban on you.
