I collected from Pa. unemployment after CF Erie, Pa shut down. Thou I live in Ohio. I made a nice living after the CF shutdown. Well, enough to live on. I whored out myself to anyone that offered me work. I collected $452 a week
unenployment, but could also make like $162 in wages per week. After that it "banked' my unemployment. Meaning it would extend my benifits. It gave me some incentive to to at least work part time for someone. Like I said I was a *****, but I was never without work. Ohio unemployment sucks. You work, but it cuts your benefits. Get a part time job, or work casual on the dock somewhere. It's a waste of time. You cant make over your benefit amount
