If you've been working and paying taxes for years when times were good, taking a little back in a time of need is not at all shameful. I am not sure if it works the same way in every state but in mine, we pay for Supplemental Unemployment Insurance (SUI) with every paycheck. You'd file a claim if you had a car accident, so why not file a claim when you lose your job through no fault of your own?
