Lost my job.....
Today was my day off as a private duty caregiver for a 94 year old woman. I received a text around 11:00 that my services were no longer needed as the money was tight and family would be taking over! No concern for me or my welfare. Didn't even apologize for no notice. I'm so angry and hurt. What is wrong with people? As a 1099 worker can I apply for unemployment?

Try a residential services company. They are always looking for reliable, caring individuals. My company always has work and overtime, it may not be the best paying job but, it's stable employment. Good luck to you!

No I don't think so.

That is unfortunate. The guy who wrote "rich dad, poor dad" said. Everyone needs to have a passive income along with there regular job.

You can still apply, they will look at your previous job and make a decision based on that.

It's not right the way people loose their jobs these days or at all. Their either taken liam reasons and no explanation or the business is is shutting down with no word so no one has time to find another job before their jobless. I had one years ago I lost and was let go from due to new ownership. Sorry you had to go through loosing your job the way you did Rachael

No!

i dont see why not

She may have been going into Hospice requiring a different level of care. At this point, a Hospice nurse would step in and take over and supply what was necessary. I am sorry this happened, but home heath care is a huge booming industry and you are bound to find something. You might need to align yourself with one of the companies that are providing the care, thus you would be working directly for them. If this happened in the future, then (hopefully) they would have another assignment ready for you right away.

Rachael, I'm sorry about your job but with these type of jobs they are more easy to get than other types of jobs. These people at these companies now don't care if you have a job or not. They are selfish and only care that they have a job. They don't care if you have a place to stay or if you go hungry. That's terrible that you didn't even get an apology. Hang in there something else will soon come your way.
Unbelievable!
