This is as good a place as any. We all read all the boards anyway.
Let me translate that for you:
"Your fired. But we don't want you to file for unemployment so we'll fool you into thinking that you're not really fired and that there is hope for a decision in your favor."
Wake up. You're not at work and you aren't being paid. You're UNEMPLOYED.
I suggest you file for unemployment ASAP. It's not retroactive and you've already lost whatever weeks of benefits since you were put on "administrative leave without pay."
