just fyi, in the past, my experience has been that collecting unemployment begins after a waiting period of one week or more. if you file immediately, you will collect unemployment beginning week 2 after being kicked to the curb. then you can pay the troll under the bridge for a chicken. or prevent your car from being repossessed or whatever your financial and family obligations may be. if you wait until week five, then you can buy a chicken from the troll under the bridge not until week six.
also, as far as regarding paying it back if reimbursed full salary for not working, if you don't pay it back then you can just ask state unemployment office to put you on a payment plan after they catch up to you with the red stamped letters after a few months, about $40 per month at a reasonable interest rate. so that enables you to buy more chickens from the troll under the bridge meanwhile.
many ways to skin a cat.
p.s. also you can file for unemployment online in your boxer shorts at home with an open coor's light. and then go buy a foam/mesh ball cap and some overalls. i'm gonna be an otr trucker! woot woot! "non-essential" this mofos.
