<prompt> Human: Some people will say I wont qualify for unemployment if I choose to quit because Im leaving the job by choice. I doubt this is true and heres why: suppose they cut my hours from 40 hrs week to 1 hr week. Does that mean I have to keep working and living off 1 hour a weeks salary, and I cant get unemployment? Of course not. The cut from 40 to 20 hours a week can be interpreted as You are laid off effective immediately. However, if youd like we have a part time job for you.I dont have to take the part time job and I will still qualify for unemployment, right?  <response>: Sounds like your employer just gave you twenty extra hours a week to find a better job. Use it wisely, and find something youll love doing.
