I was employed for 5 weeks at a company. Went to my vehicle to find the washroom key for the work washroom. I couldn't find it. But at that time knocked over a beer ccase in the back that also had a used bong in it. I was unaware that it was in the beer case of somebody I gave a ride home the week before. I had to ask some ladies for their key. They thought I smelled like weed. They told my boss. That was a Friday, my boss talked to me on Monday and said never go out to my vehicle again on ccompany time. The next day the big bosses came and told me that can't have that suspension in the work place so it I just quit nothing will be said. They bullied me into qquitting so I did. I am also a volunteer firefighter. The one boss is also a volunteer and told the township of this event. No proof of me smoking weed. I was parked right in front of a busy road. Today I had my second interview with the township and they released me for suspension of drug use. In 2012 I was given a warning as I was with someone who had week on them. No charges were laid but the police officer told my fire chief. Twice being in wrong spot at the wrong time.
Hi Liz. Thank you for your question. We would need to know more information regarding the circumstances of your resignation in order to assess whether or not you have a claim here. For example, how they bullied you, whether or not you signed anything, etc. I would suggest reaching out to Kari Jillings at our firm to set up a consultation with a lawyer, but please be advised that a resignation can be a difficult thing to set aside, particularly in light of potential cause allegations.
