WOW!!! This sounds like a typical week with my helper...my 14 year old son! The only problem that I see with this is that there was no documentation. It's hard to prove that the employee is/was a problem if these "problems" were not addressed before. He can easily come back with the excuse that it was all a misunderstanding, he thought you fired him, you thought he quit and you may have to hire him back. It all depends on how far he carries it. Remember, in order to recieve unemployment bennies, you must have been let go through no fault of your own. If these incidents would have been documented, there wouldn't even be a question. I guess you just need to wait for the other shoe to drop.
