"Sub standard job performance"
In reality, the economy is taking it's toll... and the owner is in foreclosure on his house and moving his business out of state. So like 99% of his people are getting let go for various reasons.
Word thru the grape vine is he hadn't paid his unemployment insurance premium in a long time... and if he lays us off and we file for unemployment, he'll get billed and it'll come out of his pocket.
Since we're "fired" we can't apply for unemployment. Seriously awesome.

Pretty sure you can file for unemployment and receive it as long as you were not fired for "gross misconduct". Subpar performance does not fall in line with gross misconduct. Your employer is FUCKED!

Q: My employer fired me because I was always late and I did not make sales quotas for each month. I have to admit, I was often late and my sales were down. Can I still get unemployment benefits?
A: This is one of the most misunderstood areas of unemployment benefits. Many a fired employee thinks that if an employer had good reason for firing the employee, then he or she is not entitled to unemployment benefits. Generally, this is NOT true.
In California, to NOT receive unemployment, an employee must have been fired for "gross misconduct." (This is a term of art in unemployment claims. See below.)
An employee fired for being a dumb ass, lazy, negligent, or poor performer should still be entitled to unemployment. The EDD, NOT your employer, determines if your conduct "sunk" to the level of "gross misconduct." Generally, "gross misconduct" means a willful act that either caused, or could have caused, the employer to suffer significant injury or harm. An example of gross misconduct would be an employer catching an employee truck driver operating a company vehicle while intoxicated.
Assume the employee did not cause an accident nor get arrested by the police, but he gets fired. Drunk driving while in a company vehicle would be defined gross misconduct under the unemployment code and unemployment benefits would not be awarded to the fired employee.
Other examples of gross misconduct might be:
1) selling drugs at the workplace;
2) stealing employer property or money;
3) assaulting a co-worker; or
4) accidentally causing a building to burn down.

Assaulting a coworker would be defined as gross misconduct!

I fired a guy at my job because he came to work drunk on many occasions and then didn't show up one day. So he got canned. Next thing you know he is filing for unemployment, we deny it. End up going to court with this guy and he WINS!!! WTF? so i think in your situation you can get EDD no problem.

LOL... Yeah i'm gonna look into filing for unemployment first thing next week. It shouldn't be a problem i hope.
I just hate being fired. It's a blemish on my employment history. Especially considering I was never late, and worked overtime whenever asked... "sub par performance" is some bullshit. it's just a good excuse that's hard to fight...
I would rather have had the opportunity to quit.

Apply for edd even if they deny ur claim ask to see a edd judge and go to court.your boss must show up and prove you deserved to get terminated.also when they give you your phone interview watch what you say the write everything down.be sure to mention your boss gave you an extra week,u can use that as evidence that u where not a bad employee or he wouldn't have payed you an extra week
