No - if you signed the bond it doesn't matter whether you have a job or not - or whether the bondsman asked you if you did. You are liable as surety on the bond - having a job or not has nothing to do with your liability. Sorry.

Supervised Release is as effective as bail at ensuring people make their court appearances, sparing them the documented harms of pretrial detention and allowing them to receive supportive services in their community.
As a starting point, being subject to bail merely means that you are under a duty to attend the police station or court at a specified date and time. If you are subject to unconditional bail, that will be the only requirement placed upon you.

As opposed to conditional bail, unconditional bail is simpler and a bit unstructured. An unconditional bail is usually applied when the accused person is a no–flight-risk, their charges are relatively insignificant, they don't seem like a danger to society, and they have a clean criminal record.
