i was recently let go for falsifying hours on my time sheet. what happened is myself and 2 other managers one being the head of hr department took lunch and forgot to clock in and out this suposedly happened on april 28 2011. on may 8th i recieved a text massage from the operations manager telling me not to report in to work the next day and that i would recieve a call from either him or the owner the next day, i was never contacted back i sent texts, calls and emails to him about the situation with no response at all. i recieved a disciplinary warning with my paycheck on fri may 13 saying i was terminated on the sheet the warning date section is marked may/9/11, but after i recieved the notice i was contacted by the same person who gave me the check and notice and was asked to work the next day, i went in and worked the next day and told i was going to be payed cash for that day . after that saturday i was not contacted back by anyone at the company.
i was wondering if me working the next day will help my case if my old boss decides to fight my claim?
Yes, I suppose it would help if you can prove it. I say this because employers are just people to and all people are capable of telling fibs to cover their own ass.
Other than that .. it sounds like a weak case.
Were the other managers fired as well? Or, were they not required to clock?
