I was on CERB for 7 weeks in the spring, Mid March to the end of April. While I did enjoy my time off, I didn't just do nothing. I work in HR as a career (yeah, I know). I applied to many jobs in my city that were available - I was fully prepared to go back to stocking shelves at the grocery stores, liquor stores and even looked into some warehouse work. At the same time, I was applying for jobs in my field. Finally at the end of April, I landed a better paying job than my previous one. At the same time, I attended a bunch of webinars relevant to my field. I actually felt guilty for taking CERB and thought I was going be "investigated" by the CRA. Needless to say, I don't feel as guilty anymore, given I've heard about how many people have taken complete advantage of the system...
