I am in Georgia
I have a question regarding job abandonment where I am seeking unemployment. I have been denied unemployment and must now fight with them. Here is my case:
First I worked at a car lot. On July 5th I had a sit down meeting with my boss and informed him that my self and another employee where still not getting along correctly. He was doing things previously discussed where in appropriate. We had been having issues over and over again threw out the past year or so. At this meeting I explained the situation. My boss asked me what I would like him to do about it. I informed him it was time for him to do something in reguards to the situation. Rather then the previous me and the employee sitting down and trying to hash things out. I expressed that things where getting worst and I felt if me and the employee tried to work things out again that things would get worst. He informed me he would sit us down and talk with us. He did not do this. On July 5th things came to head. The employee began to threaten me. I left the situation and went to the manager. Expressed that this was not the proper work enviorment for me. And that I had asked him to assist in this and he did nothing. I let him know that things where escalating and that I would be leaving for the day as I no longer felt physically safe. Too which he replied "No Problem". I returned to work the next business day, early as hopes to discuss transferring out of the location. He came in and saw me doing work and walked by. He waited about 30 min an walked up to me and said what are you doing? I replied working on such and such and that I would like to speak to him. At this point he informed me I quit on July 12 and that I could not be there and had to clear my things and leave. He then turned in the paper work as Job abandonment. I had been working for the company for over 3 years. My attendance was stellar and had no issues at all.
What I dont understand is
1: Arent I innocent until proven guilty?
2: Why does the system jump on board the employer?
3: Is there any point in fighting with unemployment?
4: If so what steps should I take?
Thank you for any help as I have never been down this path before.
