So I was fired this week

Not sure what your state requires, but my state has a termination form for employees to sign. The unemployment office should be able to tell you if it was voluntary or involuntary.

I went to the unemployment office yesterday to verify my identity.

They are investigating on their end.

I will call to file for payment on Monday and go from there.

A few coachings for Pull Percentage goals and I got a CA 9/2023 and 12/2023.

That is before you actually see the percentages in Myday.

However I noticed the CA from 12/2023 "disappeared" from the system about two months ago but the one from 9/2023 is still there.

I think my TL thought I would be really upset.

I am almost 60 and be fired and/or laid off a few times.

It sucks but it isn't the end of the world.

" I m almost 60" ... bingo.

Target is so strange.

I told the Unemployment Office that Target fired me.

I was approved me for benefits.

Target then told them I "voluntarily quit"!

That would explain why Target emailed me a survey to fill out as to "why I quit".

I contacted my former HR ETL and he said they only mark TMs as fired due to theft, violence, etc.

It sounds to me like it is just a way to fudge the turnover numbers and try to screw people out of unemployment.

Lol not strange, typical. My hubby in corporate after being let go for vague reasons aka age, received a separation packet in the mail. We thought it was odd so went over it with a fine tooth comb. Sure enough there was a sheet mentioning " mutual " termination if contract . They were trying to screw him out of unemployment.

Totally agree.

Apparently Target changed their answer now to state they fired me for poor work performance since I pushed back.

So Target lied to the unemployment office.

I will keep pushing and keep filing bi-weekly until I get another job and/or get my unemployment.

I had something similar happen to me about twenty years ago so I am not going to drop it.

That time is took me months to get it resolved but I got my back unemployment.

Finally I also now think they just wanted to cut my hours after there disastrous stock drop this past month.

I will keep you all posted.

Was there a paper trail for conversations for poor performance. Basically, a final CA for performance?

I had two CAs from 2023 (September and December) but none in 2024.

Actually I didn't know the September CA was in the system until a month later when I logged into Workday to do some training and noticed it in the subject line.

I asked HR why I wasn't told and they said "your TL said he told you".

By that time it was pointless for me to even read it or sign it.

I realize that I am "at-will" employee but telling Unemployment that I quit then changing your response to "work performance" after I pushed back is bullshit.

I will followup once I hear back from Unemployment.
