Let’s face it, folks who just lost their job usually feel a little hopeless. Wouldn’t you? Oh wait, my general audience actually did lose a main source of employment, so chin up everyone, there is hope.
No, I am not talking about President Obama’s stimulus package (though some of you will be getting a puny addition to each week). Any relief from the White house will be further down the road, and by then, it might be too late for some of you.
So, did you know there are many retraining programs that already exist at your Job Service office? Many of them will help pay for your college tuition. You can still get your unemployment check while going to school under this program as well.
Are you tired of working for the Big Guy and want to be your own boss? Help can be available for those seeking to strike it on their own. But be careful. You could lose benefits should you say you are already deep in your own business adventure as they would assume that you are not looking for work or you are working for fulltime for yourself.
Browse the state’s website. Call and ask for more information. Each state is different and see what they have waiting for you.
