FINDINGS OF FACT

1. The Claimant was last employed on 5/27/2004
2. The Claimant's job title was Senior Advisor
3. The Claimant was discharged for: rules violations
4. The Claimant was working at the time of the incident which caused the separation
5. Prior warning was not given before the separation.
6. The Claimant's conduct was not serious enough that a dismissal was warranted without a warning.
7. The rules that the Claimant violated do not rise to the level of willful misconduct.

In other words -- suck it, Step-by-Step, unemployment compensation for me!

~cheers~ And those findings look very positive from an external perspective, especially #7. They're saying: "you basically just used this as an excuse to get rid of him without good reason."

Normally I would not be the kind to advocate this, and I don't even claim to know the full story, but

Have you also considered legal action vs your former employer for 2 reasons

1) They deserve it
2) Get it off your employment record as a firing (yea now you have a lawsuit vs an employer, but a new potential employer can't hold that against you technically, but they can hold up a card saying you were fired)

~notes that it is 2am where he is and he is at work~ ~questions own sanity right now~
