Question

I was fired from a religious organization that didn't pay me. How do I collect unemployment? I have 3 kids.

Answer 1

Oh you were the one with the collection basket huh... Well I suggest moving on to another "organization" asap before word spreads so you can get in good and start collecting and supporting your family.  

Answer 2

Join scientology.  In scientology you pay them.  Try auditing, its the best.  

Answer 3

If there is no financial loss then unemployment will not pay you anything.

Answer 4

Submit your unemployment form to God. Make sure he signs it.

Answer 5

What does it matter if you were fired from a voluntary job? Your income should still then come from the same source!

Answer 6

Were you supposed to have been paid as an employee?  Then you woud have recourse, if you were an unpaid volunteer then unemployment for an unpaying job is, well let me think, nothing.  

What did you do for money before you got 'fired'?  Do that.

Answer 7

You don't.  You have no loss.  You weren't making any money before, you still aren't.  You're in exactly the same situation you were in when you were volunteering.  

Answer 8

Holy, technically you cannot collect unemployment because your employers never paid the unemployment contributions.  Even if they did, you would only be able to collect a 3rd of the cheque.  I would like to help you out with your 3 babbies.  I have 2 boobies to spare...

Answer 9

You were not an employee.  Your job was on a volunteer basis so no unemployment.
