I'm fired!

Fook ya!

Did you at least shit in your office chair before you left?

no he needs a good reference.

You could always leave a classic parting gift: a shoe coated with fresh dog poop...its always a big hit in the office.

lol so much for not quitting.

fired for what

*edit* the reason is because well basically... it sucks to work there and I said my heart isnt in this job anymore and that I felt it was a hostile work enviroment. They thought I was inspiring low morale as well...

They gave me a choice, said "You can get fired, and deal with the government for unemployment and not get a good reference or you can quit, and cite creative differences at the next place you apply."

I said "Fire me."

And that was that.

Feels so fucking good!

Exactly, I wasn't going to get a good reference eitherway, nor would I want to reference them. I did so little work that I'd want to put in a portfolio there...

Eitherway this is for the better. I am young, not even sure if I wanted to be in that career path for the rest of my life. So I am going to go back to school and figure things out.

Sorry to hear mate, but usually these things lead to much better opportunities, than wasting away in some shit place u hate.

oh well... i didn't think about the significance of unemployment security. here it would be definitely better to quit than to have "fired" written in your service record regardless of the reason (labor book, or whatever it's called in English)

in countires that were never communist there is no such thing as a labour book lol.

yea, I am living in the US, there is no such thing here...

You just have to put down your previous employers and most of them wont even attempt to say things bad about you to a new employer beyond the information that they need like work dates and salary. Talking bad opens up a whole arena of defamation suits.

*edit*

Especially when they have no written documentation of infractions or my termination.

So what was the point of making them fire you? You won't be able to use them as a reference. In addition, you won't be entitled to unemployment due to the circumstance of your firing.

You were fired for caring too much.

This is what unemployment looks like

collect unemployment and fuck the reference, just omit it from the resume (unless it was a big, big part of your work experience). there's a couple jobs i don't throw on my resume because i worked there for a short amount of time or told them to fuck off, etc.

don't listen to IGK if they fired you, you're good for unemployment. then again they could contest that you willingly left (when they gave you that ultimatum) therefore causing a shitstorm for yourself and the unemployment division

edit: ALSO, if you're going to school, you can't collect unemployment. keep that in mind when you fill out your shit

There's probably something in Megan's Law that says registered sex offenders can't get unemployment, he wouldn't know otherwise.

I am not starting right away, I haven't registered for classes yet, or even looked. I need to look into summer semester. There are some credits I need to pick up before I can really advance to anything useful.

If I don't get unemployment its not a huge deal, but I don't want to put a burden on my family if I can.

*edit*

LOL If they contest they can look forward to a lengthy battle that they most likely can not afford. The company was in dire straights. Most everyone I've talked to give it less than a year to go. I hadn't done billable work, nor had most of my coworkers for at least the last month.

Don't listen to small dick asians who pee on their own hand.

10. I was just fired. Can I collect Unemployment Insurance Benefits? If you are fired or suspended, you may be disqualified for benefits if the employer can prove one of the following: ... Wilful misconduct in the course of your employment. The term wilful misconduct means deliberate misconduct in wilful disregard of the employer's interest, or a single knowing violation of a reasonable and uniformly-enforced rule or policy of the employer ... If you are discharged, it is the employer's burden to prove that there was wilful misconduct. When applying for benefits after being discharged or suspended from a job you will be scheduled to attend a pre-determination hearing to determine eligibility. Your employer will be notified of this hearing and will be invited to attend or to send in a written statement.

Maybe you'll get lucky but I wouldn't count on it.

Except there was no misconduct.

I got fired from my last job for busting through the firewall and I got unemployment benefits.
