<prompt> Human: I am currently an employee of radioshack. We got a one week notice as of thursday that my store was upgraded to a Phase A Store from a Phase B Store. This meaning that instead of closing at the end of March my location is now closing this Friday. Now to bring context into how this ties into personal finance. I am now unemployed, I live with my girlfriend who has no job and we have a baby on the way, She is in her second trimester SUPER Excited about having a little baby me. Are there any recommendations as to what i can do for immediate help seeing as I am getting my last paycheck this week. Im sure as most people can discern I already barely make enough money to pay bills working Part Time for the Shack. Any suggestions to any programs that can help us through a bit of a tough spot or ideas related to that? Ive been told unemployment wont pay me much of anything and on such short notice I will probably be without work for atleast two to three weeks not wanting to settle for a factory job it makes my hunt alittle difficult as my town is basically all factories and retail. I have an associates in computer technology but cant seem to find anywhere that would like to utilize that with the exception of RadioShack but as I am sure everyone knows, that is long gone.  <response>: You should still apply for unemployment right after your last day of work.I dont think you can be picky with your job options given what I think is the state of your finances. Get whatever job you can get, get a proper personal finance plan going read the sidebar FAQ, and then use your free time to find the job which is acceptable to you.
