plot twist: the edd is actually a secret government program to test how long citizens can go without snapping. we're all just lab rats in their sick experiment ๐๐งช
Dude, pass whatever you're smoking ๐ But for real, sometimes it does feel that way...
Pro tip: if you can get through to someone, ask for a supervisor right away. The regular agents often don't have the authority to actually fix anything.
I'm in the same boat. Been waiting 7 weeks now. My landlord is breathing down my neck and I'm about to lose my apartment. This system is a joke.
Quick question - when you say "sporadic light work," was that self-employment or for another company? It might make a difference in how you report it.
It was for another company, just very few hours. Like 2-3 hours a week for a couple weeks.
Ah gotcha. Yea, you definitely need to report that. EDD gets real picky about unreported work, even if it's just a few hours.
Seriously! I'd take "EDD Bureaucracy 101" if they offered it ๐
University of Unemployment, here we come! ๐๐
Pro tip: If you can't get through on the phone, try contacting your local state representative's office. They often have direct lines to EDD and can help push things along.
That's a great idea! I never thought of that. Do you know how I can find my local rep's contact info?
Sure thing! Just google '[Your State] Find My Representative' and you should get a website where you can enter your address to find your rep. Good luck!
lol welcome to EDD hell. grab a seat, we've got cookies and endless bureaucracy ๐ช๐คก
