I was told I could take my lunches and breaks at the end of the day and leave early. Eventually I was fired without notice for logging hours without working.
My previous employer is asking me to pay back all the money they say they paid me when I wasn’t working. They’re saying that instead of suing me/reporting me to the police they just want me to pay $1,117 dollars. I was not the only person fired under the exact same circumstances. She left at the same time as me everyday and is not being asked to repay anything.
I asked for the specific hours and they threatened to take further legal action if I asked for them or any other information.
I can’t afford to pay them right away and I can’t afford a lawyer. Any thoughts?
