I was hired as book keeper/office manager for what I was told was to be a minimum 6 month contract. About 4-5 weeks into the contract I was discussing email invoices with the law clerk and an email popped up with subject "Invoice". It seemed a little odd so I asked the law clerk what she thought and we agreed to open the attachment. It turned out to be a virus and the office was shut down immediately for about 6 hours. No business information was lost but personal pictures (property of the person I was replacing) were on the computer and these were lost. About 2 weeks later, the returning office manager came to my office and told me that she was "p____d" over losing the pictures. I was a little out of line by telling her personal pictures shouldn't have been on it. I did not lose my temper say anything worse than that. Later we had a disagreement over how much pay I should have received. Our verbal contract specified a minimum of 4 hours per day. I completed payroll for the period and paid myself for 7 days. The office manager argued that it should have been 6 days as I was off for some time. I stated that I was correct and by return email I was terminated effective immediately and that I would be help liable for the costs of opening the virus email. I have not received any final payment or severance allowance or any further response to my request for status of my pay. What rights do I have?
