Ok....say if your benefit amount is $300.00 weekly and any wages you made for that week that totaled  less than 50% (which you could earn up to $149.00) then there would be no decrease in your benefit. Do you see what I mean?

Then a person has to work at least 3 days at $10/hr to get to the $149. So you start with not having your benefit reduced and end up with $449 minus 3/5  of the benefit amount for the days that you are unable to seek work and/or unavailable for work which would give you $300 minus 60% = $120 + $149 for a total of $369 for that week minus taxes for the initial $149 in wages and a tax hit possibly at the end of the year for the unemployment compensation which will probably eat up the $69 that you thought you were ahead with. Add to that gas, etc for getting to the job.
