I'm not sure how much of this you guys know, but the jerks up in SF that I briefly worked for contested my unemployment claim. They said that I had misrepresented my qualifications and abilities during the interview process, and claimed that was qualified as "misconduct" enough to deny my claim.
If I were ruled against, not only would my only current income be cut off, but I would have to repay the ~$2500 worth of benefits that I have gotten since the appeal was filed. As you can imagine, I've been a little bit stressed about this situation. My hearing was today, at 9:15 AM. I got there early, even after trying to find a decent parking spot that didn't cost a mint. I had to appear in person, the company was supposed to phone in. To a toll-free number, yet. At 9:15, the judge came out and told me that they had not yet called, so he would take another case first (a guy who was rather late showing up for an appointment earlier in the morning) and he would give them 15 more minutes to call. At about 9:35, he came back out and told me that they never called, so the appeal would be denied--I can continue to get my checks every other week. I think those bastards merely did this as a form of petty harrassment. I really wish there was some form of redress (I *almost* wish there was some form of petty harrassment that I could sic on them--but not quite, because I'm not quite as much of an asshole as they are) but there doesn't seem to be. (As an aside--FUCK YOU (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/finger.gif) DC and DP!) Anyway, I'm in the clear on that. Now all I have to do is find another job!! --DD |

I feel ya, Dave. I've only got ~1 month left in my UI account (yeah, you only get so much and when it runs out, tough shit)but, luckily, I just got some temp work at Columbia Sportswear for a month. It sucks when you have to deal with losers but at least you got the money coming back in. Good luck with the job search!
