I worked for a company here in Michigan and was let go for poor job performace. I have only received 1 write up and have also had a couple of bad reviews, however I contested those in writing. I did not see this coming and was totally blindsided that I would be fired, my boss decided to do this on a whim one day. I honestly tried my best at work, but due to lack of resources that were available to me at work, it was a situation where I felt my hands were tied and I chose to stick it out rather than quit. Any help would be great, thanks!

I think you should be able to collect unemployment no problem. If they fired you because of some kind of misconduct (like you stole from them or something) then you would have a problem.

According to the California Employment Development Department, if the individual was discharged or terminated, the EDD will conduct a telephone interview with the individual and the employer approximately two weeks after the claim is filed to determine whether or not the individual is eligible for UI benefits, according to state law and regulations. While its not entirely impossible to collect unemployment benefits as you can always appeal your case, in most instances, it would be difficult as poor performance is not a valid ground for grant of unemployment. So make sure you do better and try to keep your job.

No, you where fired. It depends on how Human Resources or your supervisor answer the wquestions the unemployment office ask. They will contact these peoples to determin if you can receive benefits.

I wish I had a definitive answer for you. I am in a similar position, but I haven't been let go yet. It seems to me that you won't lose anything by trying. I say fight for it.

You received numerous bad reviews, and a write-up, and you think you were blind sided?
Doesn't sound like a whim to me, sounds like you should have been prepared to be fired.

If you got fired and are not on your probationary period. you are certainly illegible to collect unemployment.
