And if this place was so terrible, why are you working there AGAIN? (banging head on wall here)

That very well may be, but being the "black sheep" is not an illegal reason to fire you either.

What other employees do or don't do does not relieve you of the responsibility of working the hours to which you agreed and clocking in/out as the work rules require. Nobody "forced" you to resign unless there was a gun being held to your head. Having said that, though, most states consider...

Even though I have this poster on "ignore" so I don't see what he posts, I could have probably given the same response without seeing what he posted. :rolleyes:

I honestly don't have time to read the Great American Novel. Can you cut it down?

You're lucky they didn't take you to jail right then and there.

Sorry, no, FMLA was only for 12 weeks (even though your employer extended your leave, the additional 4 weeks wasn't FMLA) and as such, your job was no longer protected.

While I don't necessarily disagree with ArmyJudge, OP, the answers to my questions are necessary for a valid response.

Even if you were on FMLA leave during this period, that would not mean you could not be laid off. Even FMLA does not protect your job against an action that would have been taken anyway. WERE you on FMLA leave and, if so, do you have any credible proof that your "lay-off" would not have...

Sorry, missed that. Oops. Then what AJ said. :)

Do you have a bona fide employment contract?

However, unless the OP comes back and answers cbg's question, nobody here can give him the legal answer.
