I have not been fired yet but it seems my boss has an itching to do it. My boss does not like me and has had it in for me for quite some time.I was suspended over a year ago and that was termed "insubordination." I know that sounds awful, but I was put in an unethical situation and stood my ground which led to an argument. 1 month later my entire job was reworked into something very unpleasant and I stuck on in the hope that the restructure would fail. It's failing but it's not changing. I applied for a position in a different department because I don't dislike the company, just my manager and my job, and was denied. I was just written up last week for nitpicky reasons, some of which were actually untrue after I researched them further and printed out e-mail documentation.I signed a document indicating that I would comply with their nitpicks but I think they will find a way to fire me anyway.I am under severe distress and need some advice on whether or not I'd be eligible if fired.

To person dubbed, I vote, do you? your frustration and anger with my "junk" appears to have hindered your spelling ability. I'm looking for legal expertise and a solution to a problem I'm facing. Guess you support "junk" like unethical managers stealing money from other departments, nepotism, and telling lies (libel, slander, defamation of character)on a document to put a person under. A better attitude? Well Pot meet Kettle -you're downright spiteful!

most employment is "at will' which means they can fire you for almost any reason. if you are fired, you could be denied unemployment benefits for a certain period, depending on the state. insubordination could be considered misconduct. if you quit, the burden of proof is on you to show good cause. the inability to work in harmony with others would not be considered good cause. your best bet would be to search for another job and leave on your terms before you are fired.

You aren't necessarily eligible for unemployment because you were fired (in most cases you are) but it would depend on why you were fired. I was once fired for insubordination. I suppossedly told my superviser to go "f" herself when I was really cussing out the machine I was using which was not cooperating with me. I collected unemployment for a short time. The company appealed and won I had to pay it all back. But I'm sure each case is slightly different. Good luck.

I hear this junk repeated everyday from my husband about his employees. No one has won unemployment yet. If fired for just cause you can not collect unemployment. The last hearing & ruling was last week - no unemployment allowed. Just because you do not like your manager does not give you the right to do what you want. Suspension is severe & reserved for the hardest to deal with employees, & "nitpicky" reasons are not neccessarily "nitpicky" to them. Get another job & a better attitude. No you are proably not elligble for unemployment as they seem to document the problems they have had with you & warned you of the problems.

All signs point to your finding a new job.
Most companies will not check references on jobs you are currently working, and I wouldn't allow them to anyway.
You need to get out of their fast. No job is worth your health and your bosses "dislike" of you has ruined any chances you have of advancing with the company (hence, the denial to transfer).
Do yourself the favor and start looking. The best defense is a good offense.
Good luck

get out fast. if it is really bad ask for a specfied amount of time to use your desk and phone to help locate another job. and take one quickly before they change their minds. take anything if you have to and try to recruit at least one good reference and, oh, kiss some butt. that is life today. wrong world but right solution.

You Need to get to get in contact with the EEOC . Sounds like you may have some workers rights issues relating to harassment and discrimination that they can help you with

It sounds like they'd rather make your life miserable so you quit than to fire you. Is it worth it?
You would be eligible if fired.

He could fire you anytime, or they could look for a good excuse to fire you, you can collect unemployment if he does fire you.
