Fifth time. You can check how much you make compared to how much you would qualify for online. I don't qualify. I never applied. Got it? I just think it's fucked up others who are better off do qualify. I don't qualify by a few hundred. Also my work depends on how busy the company is.
Food stamps works by the quarter year maximum, and monthly maximum. I get paid weekly on the same day, so sometimes I get 5 week months. That month puts me over the limit. If they averaged the three months I'd qualify. But even then, some months I make shit, others tons of over time. Like one month I had a over 60 hour week, then others I barely get the full 40. If it was averaged by 12 months I'd qualify too.
See, they expect 40 hour or less weeks all the,time. Without overtime pay, holiday, etc. It really fucks with their process with sporadic pay people like me.
