Long story short...I took a part time job to supliment my benefits, which was a huge mistake.
Employer asked me to work under the table stating it would help him out and that way I could still maintain unemployment benefits. I told him twice that this is not what I wanted. Its against the law and I was not comfortable with this. After two pay periods of cash...I quit without notice.
Here are some other reasons why I left:
Offered me merchandise in exchange for working.
Agreed upon job schedule changed after one and a half weeks of unemployment.
Was told I would be rebuilding a website to sell merchandise. Employer had me unloading shipment trucks and reorganizing boxes in unairconditioned warehouse first week (DESPITE that Employer was informed that I am recovering from a broken tail bone.) and answering phones the next week.
Was told by other employees that time and a half would not be paid in overtime hours. Paychecks are then split into other company names to avoid paying overtime.
So my question is, do I have a chance to appeal this? I called my local office to report this immediately after leaving, and was advised that I should report this, as I did. Now I am being penalized for quitting an unfit job, that I held for two weeks.
Thanks!
