tina from Loganton asks:

why do i get most of my unemployment check taken just because i work a second job. that has nothing to do with getting laid off from my first job

Statepay support representative suggests:

Actually, it is very typical for states to only award partial unemployment insurance to those who are working part-time. By definition, unemployment insurance is for those who have lost their job through no fault of their own. Regardless, unemployment insurance is not supposed to be a long-term solution. . .spend your free time looking for additional employment, you may actually find a job you are happier with! Look at sources like Craigslist.com, CareerBuilder.com, HotJobs.com, and your local newspaper. We wish you the best of luck.
