Answer to I have 120 hours of vacation time that the company states is owed to me, but my store manager keeps
If Hobby Lobby has a policy to pay out accrued but unused vacation time then it must comply with that policy. The easiest approach is likely to file a wage claim with the TWC for the vacation pay.posted Mar 27, 2017 09:45 AM [EST]

Answer to what should i do ? i asked my company to pay instead of get pay i got fired
There is still time to file a claim with the TWC for unpaid wages. You could also talk to an employment attorney in your area about possible retaliation claims in addition to the unpaid wages if you haven't already received the wages.http://www.twc.state.tx.us/jobseekers/how-submit-wage-claim-under-texas-payday-law

Answer to breaking "policies and procedures" when there isn't any in place, can i be released from my job?
Assuming what you have described is the totality of relevant facts, your employer was free to create rules on the spot and discipline you for violating them, even retroactively. This is the problem with the at-will relationship. Of course, if terminated for a concocted rule you probably have a good claim for unemployment benefits through the TWC.

Answer to Defamation? 3rd party lie got me fired.
Possibly. It's hard to say more specifically without knowing more details. It's a worth your time to talk to a local employment attorney in greater detail.posted Oct 16, 2016 8:44 PM [EST]
