LWhat you NEED to do is file for unemployment. In this situation, the state SHOULD side with you when you explain the situation.
Quite frankly, this is no longer about your social pride but about your kids. DON'T sit on your rear and kick back, do everything you can to get SOMETHING, ANYTHING that pays. You might actually have to take less, but start at the "I want this much" jobs and then go down the list to "I need this much to survive". You need to think about your kids. If you can get unemployment, take it. You've worked for six years paying into the system, and time before that serving our country. You've more than earned it.
I agree with the re-tooling aspect. It may not be school for you just yet, it may be a new field that WILL train you. But you need to make a lateral move here, you can't necessarily go forward and you definitely can't go backward; so wiggle away and make a decision. Yeah, you put 40 apps in. Put forty more in and one of them NEEDS to be unemployment. You may not like it, but it's about your boys not you right now.
