I'm a laid off Machinist still looking for work.

I'm just giving a little update on my job search so far. Since the last time I posted on here I've had 4 interviews. I'm just waiting for some feedback from 3 of them. One of them wanted to hire me on the spot for far less than I was making previously from my other job. I'm willing to take a little pay cut to prove my skills and work ethics. But this was literally embarrasing to me with my many skills and what I have to bring to the table. They offered me $43,000 to start, I was making $60,000 + at my last job. I ask the interviewers is there any room for negotiations. They ask me what would I suggest and I told them $52,000. One of the interviewers quickly said "we don't have some engineers and supervisors making that kind of money". I said "I have a lot to bring to the table" and everyone agreed. They told me the max the would go is $45,000. I told them let me think about it. That was 4/2/2020. I know I need to work and bring money into my household to keep the roof over my head and food on my table. But there is several thing I know I have working for me in my life is my wife of 32 yrs and the back up plans we've created over the yrs for times like this. I want to really go back to work but I'm not going to be handled like I'm desparate. I'm a patient person and I know that ideal job will present itself to me in the near future. Ok guys thanks for listening and please everyone be safe.

Matilda’sLaw NY State Executive Order

This law states that anyone over 70 must stay at home along with that face mask, hand washing, stay 6 ft apart etc. this was enacted because so many of us have underlying health conditions in addition to age. I am currently 72 yo with underlying cardiac, respiratory, and renal issues. I am employed full time as a night nurse in a nursing home in upstate NY. I am getting more than just a little worried about the risks I am taking coming to work. I am wondering if I could be eligible for unemployment until I could return to work in the same position taking my health and Matilda’s Law. Thank You, Deb
