Title: Bummer: Last Day's a Full Day
Post by: Buzz on June 03, 2022, 05:04:40 PM
Just realized that the last day of school is a FULL DAY again! I thought they did it last year just because it was such a fucked up year and so many days had been lost. But now ... what? Is this the norm? Ridiculous. They do nothing for the whole last week, what's the sense of the last day being a whole day?  Surprised the teachers aren't bitching.

Don't know how true this is but heard we're getting paid for a full week just for working that one day.

Well, we're supposed to get a full week's pay ... for those who are guaranteed 39 weeks, anyway.

I was told that those that are under the old contract are DEFINITELY getting paid for the entire week (39th week) even though we'll only work on Monday.

Has to be ... else we'd surely get it in arbitration. But I don't think there will be any need for that. It's not being contested as far as I know.

If the last week of school is the 40th or 41st week then I rather the last day be a Monday every year. This way senior employees get a day's pay and a full week unemployment. If we work two days then we only get two days pay and NO unemployment.

How do you get a full week of unemployment if you worked a day?

You'll get 3/4 of you usual benefit if you work one day.

That's how they getcha'.

I thought under the new unemployment format that was instituted in recent years that instead of asking days you worked it asks hours you worked?
And I believe the first option is
0-10hrs.
So I'm assuming that as long as you work 8hrs and don't make more than $504 for those 8hrs that you will be able to get ur day's pay and still be able to collect $504 from unemployment.

I think you're right. I thought that only applied to "part-time" work but the way it's worded it would apply to us as well. I stand corrected.

Just so there's no confusion, anyone who gets the 39 week guarantee should NOT claim unemployment for the last week.
