[quote=no_such_reality]That’s because you make bank.
The office helper, well, she/he doesn’t make bank.
If she had been at a prior job a while, she probably was making $14-$16/hour. As a new hire, maybe part time, she’s going to make $10-$12/hour.
So UE benefits are about $320/week.
Or work 40 hours for $480, of which “taxes” likely withhold $120 leaving you with $360. From that you need gas money, etc.[/quote]
