Discussion Ridiculous and pointless

So after waiting for two terrible months that I have gone to sleep hungry most of my benefits were DENIED. My previous manager flat out lied about my separation. I had been very sick but kept in contact with her from the start of being sick letting her know I hoped to continue my employment when I recovered but she didn’t answer my messages. When I was better I went to look at the schedule and I was not on it. I sent screenshots of my unanswered messages to the unemployment department showing that I did not quit but it didn’t matter. I won’t go into how bad this is destroying my life. I’m losing everything and will soon be homeless. What can I do to hold her accountable for this?

You have been waiting for 2 months for a decision on unemployment? Wow. That is unfortunate. I wish we had spoken sooner.

I'm not really here to provide a way for you to hold your previous manager accountable for what they did or did not tell ESD. I'm only here to help you with an unemployment claim. If you want help regarding that, I need to know specifically what laws are listed in the determination letter that announced the ineligibility.

Once we have a robust conversation about those laws I am certainly going to recommend a consultation with a law firm associated with our community, but first we need to unpack everything in the last 2 months and what led up to the job separation and what was or was not provided and if it was or was not productive in an eligibility decision

In general, we're extremely likely to be going over information already listed in the initial eligible megapost, here
