    Keep in mind Joel, that it a former employer CAN NOT say anything bad about you when called for as a reference. If they do you have legal ground to stand on. They do have the right to refuse to give any sort of reference at all which often times is seen as a "bad" reference.

    In all honesty, report it to HR and if possible find others who can substantiate your claims.

          Also put in the two weeks and get the hell out, if the foreman is a piece of shit his superiors will/should figure that out. If they think he is the SHIT I guess maybe you are a worthless employee and he wants you to quit anyways. His way of doing it is probally not the most respectable way of doing it though. If you want when you put in your two weeks to HR tell them you want an exit interview and voice your opinions at that time, but not like a whiny little bitch like some young adults these days do..

            I thought you didn't have to put in 2 weeks in ND? If that's so, why even do that?

              You don't and they can also fire you on the spot.
              Like he said he doesn't want to leave with a negative impression which is a good idea..

                Joel, just put in your 2 weeks and be done there. Don't make a big deal out of it and just put up with the shit for the 2 weeks.

                    You don't have to put in your 2 weeks anywhere. It is just being nice. My step dad tells me the same thing that tjamz said about refrences. When he gets calls about past employees all he can say is confirm they worked there, the dates, position/type of work they did.(pretty much confirm or deny what was put as there work history) I can remember if he said he gives any information about why they left or if they were fired, but pretty sure he doesn't.

                    Diesel repairs or performance products.

                      Majority of places that I know of, and this is what I do, or ask is, if they would hire that person again.

                        You don't have to anywhere, but it can go on your work record and hurt it in states like MN, not in ND.

                          I delt with the same shit at Tires Plus. Except I just got sick of it and didnt go to work one day, boss called and asked if I was coming in that day and told him nope. He asked when he could expect me to be in again and I told him never, he said have a nice fucking life and hung up on me. It was probably not the best way to deal with shit, but I usually just get back at people, left them in a tight spot till they could find someone else. My advice, quit just dont do it like that.

                                          Like someone else said, in ND you don't need a 1 or 2 weeks notice, however at the same time a ND employer can fire you on the spot... Now I believe in MN they can fire you on the spot as well, but in MN they will need a reason to fire, unlike ND they won't.. (Right to work, will to work, whatever it's called..) An exit interview would also be good.. By doing one of those, it shows that you have left on good terms.. Try and receive any documents that include work history as far as how many missed days, etc. etc. Also, if you can, don't use your direct foreman as a reference, try going 1 step up if you can..
