Should i call unemployment if i am suspended pending termination?
No, instead go to see an unemployment law attorney who will usually consult for free. Ask him what to do. They cannot simply refuse to accept the note and call it a forgery, the burden is on them. If they discharge you for good cause or no cause, fine, but if they discharge you for something that you did not do and they don’t bother to verify the facts (or give you an unrealistic deadline) then you MIGHT be entitled to damages or to be rehired. MIGHT. Certainly you will want to do that to ensure that you are eligible for UI. And a phone call from an employment law attorney, even if you have no real case might make them think twice.
