What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
On Sept 30, 2009 I put in my two weeks notice with my employer letting him know that my last day would be Oct 14, 2009. When I got to work yesterday, Oct 5, 2009 he called me on the phone and let me know that the previous Friday would be my last day and that I could leave right away. Can he legally let me go after I've already quit? Does he have to pay me for the final two weeks?
I immediately filed an umemployment claim, since I worked in Minnesota through April 2009 I filed in MN. I will also be moving back to MN in the next two weeks (the reason for me quitting) I talked with people at both the Georgia and Minnesota Department of Labor and they both thought I would be able to collect unemployment based on the insidence.
Then about 8 hours after our initial conversation my boss called me and said that if I would like I could come back through 10/14/09 and work part-time and be paid hourly. I was in a salaried position before. I told him the only way I would come back to work is if I would be making my full paycheck, I would not be accepting any less. Do I have to accept any work? He is calling me back this morning to let me know if he can afford to financially have me come back for the final 6 days. If I want to collect unemployment do I have accept my job back for the final 6 days? This has been an awful stiuation and I do not want to have to work for this man again. However, I want to be able to collect ummployment so if I have to go back to this job if I am offered it I will.
Thank you in advance.
