Yep, I am wondering if you are in CA.... - you can do almost anything

and still collect unemployment. It's ridiculous. My brother's ignorant friend made a racist remark to a new employee, got fired for it, and then STOLE money from the employer before he left and STILL got unemployment for TWO YEARS (back when that was how long you could in CA). So ridiculous. However, in the above poster's case, she will be able to collect...you do NOT have to accept a job if it pays less than the job you just lost. I believe that is true across all states.
