Hi i live in MD but i was hired by THE FIRM in Washington DC to work in a gov office. I was hired on sept 26 and my last day was Sept 30. on that day i over heard another employee saying good bye to someone else. THE FIRM had a contract with the gov office and apparently it was up that fri. sept 30, i went to the guy who hired me and asked him about it and he told me dont worry the service was a necessary one and we would be back the following monday afternoon at the latest. 3 weeks later after numerous calls to the FIRM, many of which were ignored and when i did get thro they kept telling me that things were being worked out dont worry.... finally ending the 3rd week home i spoke to the owner of THE FIRM and she said things were taking longer than expected and if i wanted i could try to get something else in the mean time...
Now 6.5 weeks later i get a letter from THE FIRM in the mail saying thanks for my services and the letter is dated sept. 29th as if i had prior knowledge about their gov contract ending. I had none and why hire me one week before the end of contract?
I think i should be compensated for all that 6.5 weeks before i received that letter. I want to know if i have a case worth going forward with in small claims court.
