    How Do I Prove I Did Not Quit
    My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: ma

    i worked for a company for 6 months.i came from a trong union background.i complained to my direct supervisor about being forced to deliver damaged goods,work thru lunch with no pay and put in a truck wwhich they knew had faulty brakes..all my complaints were brushed aside.beginning of sept. i was promised a raise.a month passed and it never came though i asked about it every week.was eventually told they forgot.a month later still no raise.

    i called in sick one day and supervisor told me was obvious i did not want to work there.i was stunned and replied i did.he said all i do is complain and my union attitude did not gel with company.i asked is wanting to be paid lunch when i worked it,expecting a raise i was promised or a truck with brakes really having a union attitude?he told me to resign.I refused.so he told me was timeto part ways and to no longer come in.i fild for unemployment.my employer is contesting it claiming i quit.i did not quit nor does he have any signed document from me saying i did.my question is how do i prove to unemployment i did not quit?or will it be just my word against theirs?

    To a certain extent it is your word against theirs. But that doesn't mean that the DUA will automatically take their word over yours. If anything, MA tends to lean in favor of the employee over the employer. And they can't prove you did resign any more than you can prove you didn't - and the fact that they can't show a resignation letter, while it won't be conclusive evidence since people do quit verbally, will certainly support your position.
