It was a mistake that I didn't check my mailbox for 3 weeks, and I had to give short notice. Yet, she's had to schedule and rearrange us all for months now on short notice. And, it was never a problem.
My employer who reiterated that it was the customer, not them who requested I be terminated from the contract, paid me for 2 weeks Administrative Leave. They were going to try and find me another site to work at, and asked that I do the same.
However, if nothing came up, I'd be administrativel y terminated and the work relationship would end. I didn't quit, and technically I wasn't terminated through any fault of my own by the company I actually worked for.
The paper I signed actually states they were paying me for two weeks. People who are fired don't have their company paying them for 2 weeks and trying to get them another assignment.
Would I be eligible under these circumstances to receive unemployment benefits?
