Hostile Environment Unemployment claim chance?
Yesterday I quit my job, and now the reality is setting in and today, I put in a bunch of applications, but all the places say they weren't hiring. I was wondering if my case qualifies for Hostile environment and can get UI benefits. During my Interview, I was never told this would be a part time job, and never said anything about having to work up to receive hours. I received 20-26 hours a week, while two other cooks got overtime (40+), and another cook who started a week before, was getting 30-35 hours. My third day while working at this job, my boss yelled at me and another Co-worker for missing a order he called down saying "Shut the F*** up, and open your F***ing ears!", the next day, same thing happen and he Screamed something similar. A day or so after (possible the same day, can't quiet remember), my boss yelled at me to go into the walk-in and grab the Veggies that were prepared. I had no idea where these were, and asked, he slammed tongs down on the line and went out there and grabbed them himself. A few days after that, he ordered me to go in there and grab the Veggies and Lobster tails. I ran in there, grabbing the lobster tail that took me several minutes to find, (i normally have no dealings with this item) and ran inside to hurry and get it under cool water to thaw it out. He runs back to see what I was doing, and noticed I didn't grab the Veggies also (which is in a 600 pan (Large and somewhat heavy, I couldn't grab both the frozen box of lobster and Veggies at the same time)), he runs out side Slamming the door outside as hard as he could. My boss, and the other cooks, would scream at servers, cursing them if they didn't grab the food out of the window as soon as it was finished, Constantly (ALWAYS) referring the servers (female) "B****es". I Once asked a cook, about ual Harment, and told me "This is a laid back working environment, if you don't like it, you need too find another job." I am somewhat of a slow learner, and takes me some time too learn a new menu, which i warned them about prior to hiring. I Was constantly being told I was slow, and sucked at my job, in front of other employees.(By other co-workers, the bosses nephew to be exact, and complaining about him, would have only caused worse problems, I can guarantee). What caused me to actually quit Monday, was a outside of work friend of the Boss, was hired, and told me he would be getting roughly 40 hours a week, where as i was still scheduled to average about 20-26 hours a week. I have panic attacks, (self diagnosed, dad would never take me to a doctor) and would find myself shaking days I had to come in, worried about disappointing the boss, and being yelled at and Ridiculed in front of the whole Staff. I'm not one to milk the system, I want to find a job, but work here is Scarce, What are my chances of Qualifying for Unemployment? I'm in Wyoming, not sure if the law changes per state. Thank you very much for reading my Novel, and i'll appreciate any, and all advice/information I receive. This is NOT everything, there is more, which i'd get into more detail at the UI Office, (Such as boss throwing a Metal Ramekin ped me to hit another employee because he said the Chicago bulls suck, but ended up missing the intended target, and hit the Dishwasher instead.) Thanks
