One small victory for Dragons...
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!

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~

Besides, lawsuits require time, effort, and money, which could all be better spent finding a new and better job. I specifically informed them in a letter that they were *only* allowed to verify my dates of employment, not give recommendations. If a potential employer asks why I left, I'll simply say the agency and I wanted a mutual separation. (Which is true.) If they ask if I was fired, I'll say yes and explain why. I think I have a pretty good justification as to my actions.
