My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: Va
Can I get unemployment if my boss keeps writing me up for poor job performance? I unload trucks in a warehouse and my boss has written me up twice for poor job performance. He says I am not unloading fast enough but has not given me any designated number of cases to be unloaded per day. He says other people in my department are unloading faster than I am and that I need to speed things up. I have tried my best to go faster but I cant physically keep up with coworkers. I think he is trying to get rid of me and one of my other coworkers so he can save on the budget. On average the whole department finishes the days work in 6 or less hours. That leaves us 2 -3 hours per day of sweeping and trying to find something to do? How can he tell me I am not going fast enough when we run out of work daily? I don't know what to do, I cant go to human resources because she backs everything he does. I have applied at other jobs but I haven't heard anything from them. He told me that if I applied for unemployment the company would fight it so I couldn't get it. I need a idea of what to do?
