  • You can quit, but you need to proved it to the administration judge, why you quit, and is there any hostile environment where you work. Examples: Your boss is too demanding etc.
    I quit my job and receiving unemployment compensation from them. Let's them prove it that you are wrong.
    Just a thought. Been there done that

  • yelling is NOT a good excuse, pulling out his "gold member" and chasing you around the desk, IS a valid reason to quit and collect unemployment.

  • Complete sentences would be much easier to read.
    No one on this board can tell you whether or not you will be able to get unemployment if you quit. I can tell you that no matter what state you're in, 999 times out of 1000 if you quit you don't get it. Whether or not you will be the 1000th time (which means you will have to prove that no reasonable person would have had any choice but to quit) will be determined by your state law and the VERY specific circumstances of your claim.
    However, if you believe that you are being mistreated because of your filing a workers comp claim, you may have a valid discrimination claim that you can take to the EEOC. You can call them, describe the situation and get an opinion from them. It won't cost you anything.
