I was just hired at Popeyes in the end of May, so I had training day & worked a couple shifts. My hours added up to 14 hours because I took a month off for religious reasons. However, they only paid me $50 for "training" and after I complained, they let me go because the restaurant is "slow". How do I get my money?

I asked to leave early from work but someone covered my last few hours of the shift therefore I did not abandone my shift. I told the supervisor I was going to see my doctor. But I was late and doctor's office close early on a Friday. So I decided just to go home and rest. I was fired.

My company's lawyer had conflict of interest because he representing my employer and also myself; plus he had many cease and desist letters not to contact me. Does this mean my termination can be set aside?

I got terminated after four years without reason or any notice whatsoever. They escorted me out, creating fear and resentment, and humiliation. They gave me 2 months severance package but I don't see it near enough to my loss and the time I need to replace the job. I was a star employee. Their reason was that I'm not happy there.
