What is the name of your state? Ohio
Think I'm seeking advice, especially since I have NO desire to see my former boss and HR person. I cannot request a telephone hearing b/c I am not currently working (I keep trying). I watched the hearing video available, but that only confirmed my belief I don't want an in-person hearing!
Company fired me 3 months ago for performance. I had 30 days to improve but "didn't improve enough". Boss stated I wasn't right for position. I made some big-enough-but-not-Earth-shattering mistakes, as it was a new industry, and I did not catch on to some things like I should. I have copies of my not-good performance reviews, but nothing else positive.
State of Ohio determined my unemployment was allowed, but company has appealed... I checked out the Unemployment Compensation Review Commission's Abstract on their web site and under discharge / suitability ...
I may lose. One attorney, who isn't interested in representing me, said I will have to prove I didn't receive proper instructions and training. How can I w/no evidence? No witnesses except different boss who hired me, but I'm sure he's annoyed he did in the first place. I presume company will have witnesses in regards to the mistakes.
Any thoughts, please? Especially how to suck it up for attendance?! I'm losing sleep over this.
Also, would you guys recommend professional attire or will business casual be alright (khakis & Polo shirt)?
Thank you.
