Have you ever heard of "work share"?

  1. Just curious if anyone elses states have this program. I live in Kansas as you can see from my location. I have a factory job (I run industrial sewing machines, so its a pretty cushy factory job lol) And we have hit our slow season for the year. In lieu of laying people off they do this "work share" program, where I work 3 days a week, and the State of Kansas basically pays me unemployment for the other 2 I WOULD be working.

    Whats your thoughts on this? On the one hand, I hate sitting on my ass taking peoples tax dollars. But on the other hand. I'm working 22 hours a week with a 4 day weekend every week, making the same amount as when I worked 6 days a week, FUCK YEAH!

    What are your thoughts?
     
  2. Give this one bump, just to see if anyones gonna reply. If not I'll probably assume nobody cares and delete the thread so it doesnt take up space lol.
     
  3. Yeah you are taking tax payers money but you're being forced to.


    Rock on. :smoke:
