That could be a better thing long-term from a no-compete standpoint.

Hopefully it was handled professional.

LOL what would give you any hope of that?

Ace, you will be better off in the long run. Best of luck to you. As Babs said, at least you can get some mailbox money (unemployment) since you were laid off.

Your job is very Kafkaesque. This is the most Kafkaesque Metallica song so I'm linking it here (also a great song). It's about bureaucracy and witch hunts. You certainly always seem to be pulling the shortest straw.

I'm 10 pages behind so can't wait to catch up on all the drama!


Great song!

Any news on the job front? Will you
file for unemployment?

Is there a way you can help these victims because of the new statute recently passed?

Don't be surprised if the owner
fights it. It cost's him money if
you get unemployment. He
has to pay taxes on what you
get paid and his unemployment
insurance payments increase.
They hope you'll get tired of
fighting it, but you're an attorney
and don't need to hire one to
tell what to do. So fight him over
it if you have to.

NYS is pretty biased to the side of the claimant. And the owner is probably disorganized enough it should be an easy win.
