Yes, you will probably be able to collect unemployment in this circumstance. You might also want to speak with an attorney about the actions taken by your employer in this circumstance as they may be in violation of certain FMLA rules.

Can you collect unemployment on all days of the week?

Unemployment benefits are ste by the state in which you live in. Generally, for a person to collect unemployment benefits, first, the company has to pay into the unemployment fund of that particular state, then he / she would have to be laid off by a company downsizing or unfairly dismissed by their supervisor, boss, what have you. If the employee was in any responsible for his / her dismissal, i.e., theft, absentism, unsatisfactory job performance, etc, you are not getting it. A 2 day a week job, presumably 16 hours a week is a part time job and carries few benefits, i.e., vacation time, medical, sick time, etc. It would be rare indeed for an employer to offer unemployment benefits to a part time worker. Of course, it may be you work for "a horse of a different color."
