This is old, but first I have heard of it. State employees laid off one day a week to be able to collect the magic 600 dollars per week.

Uh-may-zing.
No doubt they'll get paid retroactively for those missed days at some point.

Our governments are a money racket, for leaders and workers, plain and simple.
And we tax-paying, law-abiding, patriotic workers are the schmucks.
I think I’ve had enough now. Time to end it.

Well, that’s $78 per hour for each of those 8 non-work hours. What a scam!

ANd, those state workers were automatically signed up for unemployment, they did not have to go thru the hell that is signing up. She did it for then, cos they’re more important than the rest of us.

I don’t see how this is factually correct as that is not how unemployment works.
Being laid off is different than being given two days off per pay period. That is merely a slight reduction in hours. you still have your job and all the benefits.
That is not considered a layoff by any stretch of the imagination.
I have learned to not believe everything I read on the internet.

I asked about this when she first announced the 1 day a week layoffs.
Several posters on here said no way.
But I had a really bad feeling - the Gov employees NEVER take it in the shorts like the rest of us.
Looks like I was right!

This is happening here in Oregon as well with School teachers and everything.

I've also heard that Michigan's unemployment insurance program software has imploded, and if you have a problem, you're getting the finger from the state.
Even if you call your state representative.
