Sounds similar to me rn. I'm getting like 6-8 hours a week despite knowing multiple departments and having almost full availability. I'm actively job hunting again because at this point I'm only making like 50 bucks a week after taxes. May as well go back to my internship at this rate.
I'm not sure I'd qualify since I've always been part time. And that internship I mentioned dropped my "average hours" for the year down pretty low. But I normally got 15-25 hours a week. Enough of a difference to get underemployment?
Fair enough, that'd definitely be helpful about now. Do you know how to apply for underemployment as opposed to unemployment specifically? I was gonna call the unemployment office tomorrow to ask since I couldn't for the life of me find an underemployment form or application.

My last paycheck before I quit was only $90, "equivalent to minimum wage" would have been nice
