I want to warn you, this is NOT going to be a pretty post

Though I don’t need it now, because the higher powers that be, I call this power God, he/she was looking at for me and my family, and helped me find a job. I was only out of work for 3 weeks in total but what long and uncertain days they were.

As some of you know I’ve filed for Unemployment. I just found out today that I was denied benefits, during their investigation it was said that I was terminated for insubordination and there for ineligible for benefits. Now, I looked up exactly what insubordination actually means.

Insubordination is classically defined as an employee's willful disregard for a manager's direct orders.

Now, my husband suggested suing 3 weeks ago, but as you know I’ve been looking to get hired with their vendor and I didn’t want to throw a stone in the pond and cause ripples where they weren’t needed. It never occurred to me that they would do such a thing and deny me benefits that don’t come out of their pocket; it’s my money that I’ve put into the system! So, I resigned to let it go and put it behind for the sake of my plans for the future.

Ok, well Fuck that now! I just called the Offices of Michael J. MacDonald, P.A., an aggressive trail lawyer to set an appointment to discuss what I need if I don’t have already, to make a case against my previous employer. I am hoping to sweet Jesus I do, because I want to rip that company apart! I had a real issue about what that woman did; screwing with my livelihood and all, but to go out of your way to make sure that they can’t receive benefits is just unforgivable. And you know something I don’t even care if I win; I bet you they will be careful with the next person they decide on firing! They will have to think twice, if they won’t because it’s the right thing to do then I will make it the right thing for their wallet!

Yeah, this may hurt my dealings with their vendor if my previous employer decides to disclose this information to them but, I seriously doubt they would or will. It would be a HUGE embarrassment to them.

I did everything that I was told to do, I did everything that was expected of me to do and I did above and beyond what I was expected of me to do! I am tired of people like that, and it makes me sick that people like that continue to be employed while those of us that are deserving, honest and hard working get the shit end of the stick. Well, no more! If the lawyer tells me I don’t have a leg to stand on, then fine, but if he even gives me a sliver of hope, I am going screw their asses to the wall!

pissed off, scew them, bastards, no more!
