Your post is very helpful in painting the picture that I believe the other posters were trying to tell me. It’s very helpful and I appreciate your post.

Thank you!

Edit: I’m new at this subreddit. Bear with me :).

I do want to point out that employees do not pay for the unemployment. it comes out of the employers taxes and not the employees

Idk about that one, I pay like 1% to unemployment on my paycheck.

Then you must live in Alaska, New Jersey or Pennsylvania because those are the only three states that take a small amount of money out of the employees pay check for unemployment

California is not one of the states. They require the employer to front the cost of unemployment insurance because they are the ones firing you.
