The local casinos get busy once a month, so I would guess that they come out monthly.

And yes, it is sad. The local casinos actually do get busy when unemployment checks come out (Connecticut)

Never give up hope that things will work out in the end. That the best advice I can offer, and the best advice I got when I got out of the Navy.

Unemployment checks? Are those every week? Every 2 weeks? Every month?


Wow, i dont know what to say.

apply for unemployment for now. the first week you apply is a waiting week, so no pay.

first of all, don't bother calling them, they will tell you to do it online. its a voice recording maze on the phone. you must apply and certify your claim that you didn't work EVERY WEEK, beginning on sunday, last day on saturday. i did electronic transfer to my checking account as payment method. payment is roughly 2 business days from the day you make your claim.

Damn and i like that job. Back to school i guess. Maybe its a sign to get my ass back into school. I know i need English classes bad.

Really? I can tell in the few posts in this thread that your English is at least as good as the majority here, better than many.
