A recent post on freeadvice. com addressed getting unemployment after quitting a job. Can you quit your job and still be eligible for unemployment?
-->
I quit my job initially because I lost my child care. I was only working part-time but it wasn't the best environment to work in. I worked with very childish people who made my time there very uncomfortable. They would do things that would interfere with my job (i.e taking the cartridge out of my printer, emptying the paper, etc). I tried to ignore them but I feel they crossed the line. I went in to talk to my employer to work some hours out and saw someone had poked holes in the pictures of my 2 year old son's eyes. I cannot work with people like this. Would I be eligible?
According to the site, it is not a black and white issue. Unemployment is granted on a case by case basis, and if a person quits based on, say, a hostile work environment or some other issue, he or she could still be eligible to receive the money. Filing sooner than later is advised, and hiring a lawyer (disclaimer: it is a free legal advice site) is recommended in some cases.

Workers in BMW's auto plants in Germany make twice as much as US workers in BMW plants who make $15 an hour. Oh and by the way German workers get 35 days of vacation AND decent healthcare.
