My company has crazy rules. Within the 1st 4 months of employment, you are given up to 2 "occurances". Occurances are any tardiness and or absence which is not scheduled. Its almost been 4 months and I am at 2 occurances. I got 1 occurance from being 3 minutes late 2 times (each occurance is .5). Another time I had a female issue in which I was 5 minutes late coming back from lunch, another .5 occurance, and my father was in the hospital for a stroke, missed one whole day which is 1 occurance. I was late last monday because my sons daycare provider was sick, so I had to find another one. That puts me at 2.5 occurances in less than 4 months. Grounds for termination. With this situation, could i collect unemployment.
