I didn't like my job anymore and left the company in 2006 after 2 years. The CEO took that personally. He probably still holds a grudge, 13 years later. I emailed the generic info@ company address and asked for a certificate of employment, but did not receive an answer.
Before I follow up by phone: am I entitled to a simple letter that says "Robert was employed as a X at COMPANY from START DATE to LEAVE DATE"?
This is in Texas in the US.
Edit on reason: I'd need this letter for proof with social security / Rentenversicherung in Germany. I could try to show my employment from the paystubs, but a simple letter would be easier.

Who asked for this letter? Can't they call the company and ask if you worked there? Would showing your receipts from that period help if you don't get the letter?

I'd say you try calling first and then asking here how to proceed in case it where negative. If they give it to you then this is a non-issue thankfully :)

Not your problem. If a prospective employer needs to check dates, they'll ring the HR people at your previous company. This is 13 years ago.. pretty much irrelevant, and I'm sure the CEO will have forgotten you exist.

@PeteCon that reads like a valid answer to me. Mind not putting it in a comment?
