What is the name of your state? California
Employer miscalculated overtime for 2 years. During 2 week training, was told not leave the building during the course of my 8 hour day, no breaks.
Discovered its illeagal. Told boss I wanted to take a lunch and break periods daily, and wanted to correct the "oversight" in calculating overtime. After two weeks of nothing, I informed my boss that I needed a timeline and explanation of how we would resolve the matter in two days. The next day I was fired.
I filed for unemployment and was denied because employer said I violated company rule and was warned several times--always verbally (I received a copy of the EDD interview with employer). Of course this never happened. In fact, during the period of employment, I was never reprimanded for anything by anyone, verbally or written.
Also: Looking for work for 2 months and found job opening (same industry). Applied, met Manager and had enthusiastic conversation about position. He promised to call for a formal interview, but the next day they were no longer going to fill those positions discussed.
How do I find out if former employer is saying bad stuff about me?
With an Unemployment Compensation Appeals Hearing and two claims with the labor Board, how can I show that I'm innocent of their accusations?
There are witnesses that could help me, but they are all afraid to get involved (i.e. they will be fired, too.) How should I proceed?
Should I obtain an Attorney, and how is that financially possible, when I'm almost homeless?
