I was fired from my position as a bartender / bar manager at a high end private country club. I was unaware of my rights. I applied for unemployment, my general manager tried to deny the claim and was caught in a lie. The claim was put through. Its been 6 months and I've been constantly sending out resumes.....over 10 years of experience. Not one call back. They would be excited until they called him for a reference. He fired me several weeks after he got his long term contract. I had reported him several months earlier for gross misconduct. When he fired me.....it came down to this " Larry, what it all boils down to is you talked to the wrong people." No explanation....I still don't know what I was fired for. Never any complaints from my customers....only praise. Now 6 months later....unemployment ran out and as long as I keep getting bad references.... I can't find a decent job.
Am I a victim of statute of limitations? I was a good employee, and he had a personal beef with me and waited until he got his contract to fire me, then the board of directors had no say. He's lied to former co-workers and has made it impossible to get a job in my field.....I've even lost opportunities out of state because of his bad references.
