Quit temporary job. Still had permanent. Being denied!

by Mary
(Oden, MI)

I have. Permanent place of work. It's a serving job in a locale that tends to be very seasonally inflated and, obviously, de-flated as well. I've worked here for 2 summers now and finally have committed to working year round and make this m permanent residence. I worked at a company 5 hours away and left with good notice before I decided to move back to my permanent, but up til now only summer job. The money was always better here. My boss cried when I left! Since my job was slowing down for the season I told my old employer I could help her out for a few weeks and help her during her busy season. I originally told her I could work a straight month before I had to go back home to my other job but I wasn't sure of the exact date. I worked regularly and after 3 weeks I was called by my permanent job and told I was needed. I gave my temporary boss a weeks notice (before she had starts the schedule) that my time was over. She was angry because I was one of the few people she could count on. Who else would leave their new house to come back for weeks on end? I was approved for unemPloyment since my job has slowed down but have since been issued a denial and restitution letter. I haven't made the re- work amount. Do I even have to? Or should I just write a protest mentioning everything I said here?






You are appealing. Appeal letters should protest only one thing .. your disagreement with the determination and request for a hearing .. so you can protest.

However, I'm not clear why you have that determination for an overpayment, nore what job your appeal would be focused on.

And I certainly, do not understand how it is you haven't purged any voluntary quit disqualification yet if what you tell me is the fact of the matter.

Clearly, I must be missing something here.

It's best you contact the Michigan Advocacy program to discuss your case.
