I do think this is an attempt to force CB out.
I hope this is not it, but I agree.
If they terminate you, make sure it isn't for cause. Let them pay you unemployment if they can you.
There may be a loophole for unemployment, if it is still in effect. I am basing it on the laws of my own state, so it needs to be verified with your own.
Here it is based upon the separation issue for why you terminated your last job. The last job could be for 1 hour. That is the employer who is contacted to verify why you left there. So, what people used to do if they quit or were fired for cause: get a temp job of a couple of hours or days. That would be their last employer.
The benefits would still be based on earnings during the base period which would be a year in the recent past, exactly which months, based upon the laws of your state.
The benefit amount you get is based upon the base period. That would be the School District. The base period is calculated here in my state by going back approximately 6 months and using the prior year.
Feeling gave you excellent information.
Almost all of us have been in the situation in which you find yourself once or more in our lives. You are handling it, but you do not have to handle it indefinitely.
I agree with Feeling: It is very hard on you. It is bad for your health.
These are the possible options (everything here needs to be verified and not taken at face value. Benefits available differ from State to State and rules change, over time):
--Unemployment Insurance, if you are terminated or laid off.
--Disability Insurance--State
--SSDI, if you have the work history to qualify. (Federal, through Social Security office.)
--SSI--Federal. You do not have to have sufficient work credits. (Social Security)
--Workers Compensation (which is for a work related injury. It is a possibility, because the initial condition can be preexisting, if it is exacerbated by the job. Apply at your work place, after you have verified you have eligibility and you have gotten a letter from your doctor.)
Good Luck. We are with you.
