What is the name of your state? North Carolina sister and brother-in-law got my 2 nephews a great Christmas gift – a trampoline :D which has been set up in the back yard. As you can imagine, other neighborhood children want to get on it and play. My brother in law had one parent give...

Just to add something - your call to a staff member to make sure there was a place to put your LUNCH was silly, as was all the concern about what to wear. Were you not observant enough at your interview to see what people were wearing? You essentially registered a complaint about the person...

cbg, that is SO true. Time after time people come here to post ans ask "will they get unemployment?" when they haven't even applied! Yet they expect board member to know all the specifics of their situation and make a determination. Just APPLY! Usually this can be done quickly over the...

I can't believe you're serious with this question. You knew you weren't entitled to the money - you were no longer employed there and you certainly weren't parking there. If you had sent the first check back with a note you wouldn't have the problem of wanting to make "installment payments"...

Medicracer, Go to www.myreferences.com For a small fee (I think less than $50) they will give you a written report on EXACTLY who said what, After you find out what was said, if you think you have a case, take your evidence to an attorney for a consultation. Suspicions and heresay aren't...

Well, if you don't know what evidence is, I doubt I can help you. Read the thread.

Hmmmm. I think it's interesting the direction this discussion has taken. I'm not referring to the resident hyena; I mean that most people have come in and offered various excuses and explanations for what he's doing. Puhleeeze. How does anyone KNOW that anyone referred to in ANY thread is...

Loonpoc, I didn't say that YOU said snything about libel (but quite a few others did, read the posts from Hexeliebe). You didn't address this from my post: "........Everyday, people report instances of suspected government fraud, waste and abuse of all kinds. Sometimes the reports are valid...

Questions for Loocpoc, >>However if he comes out of this exonerated, Id suggest getting a lawyer and be ready for a possible lawsuit and possible criminal legal action.<< 1. If as she said, he is bragging about doing all this on govt time, all should would have to do would be to supply the...

Fuming, I understand your anger and shock or whatever. I think what she did is revolting. Sounds like a sadistic nut case. But this is an example of the risk taken when saying things at work which can be used against a person or embarrassing/damaging if repeated. You mentioned her saying...

Interesting. Thanks for the information.

I realize state UC regs vary, but just for conversational/information purposes, isn't "willful misconduct" something like: stealing. falsifying records, physical fighting, doing drugs on the job, destroying property, things like that?

Thanks for reply, Beth. Sounds like she'll be okay. I'll pass information on. It's my feeling that firings like this are usually for personality clashes but I can see where it would be best for employer not to contest except in cases where there was obvious misconduct, theft, etc. or...

Does &quot;At Will&quot; employer have to give reason for firing to Unemployment office? I realize that (I think) 49 of the 50 states are "At Will" and that employers can terminate employees for no reason or for another reason (as long as it's not discriminatory based on race, sex, age, etc.)...

Joeo, this is sillly. You keep going around in circles. I'm not interested in how many have stayed vs. how many have left. If you like doing volunteer work for thieves, stay and stop complaining. If you prefer to get paid for working and you want to use your time more productively; i.e., to...
