Walmart Store #2615 in Valdosta, GA needs AFL-CIO, Jesus, God anybody but somebody.....

Georgia At Will Employment Law, Wal-Mart Store #2615, President H. Lee Scott Jr., and mistreated workers

Yes!

You have to, have worked at WAL-MART Store #2615 in Valdosta, Georgia to OVERSTAND the sick working environment employees must face each and every day--without any real voice.

It is my belief. That every worker at Wal-Mart Stores Inc., should have an equal chance to advance up the ladder on an equal footing, which is not presently being done in many departments according to workers.

Today it was brought to my attention that workers are still being coached, and given a D-Days without merit in order to justify terminations.

Moreover, if you become sick and use your sick time you may not have a job when you return. (Workers name withheld, but available).

Wal-Mart Managers must understand that workers are adults, American Citizens, and should be treated with respect. It is Un-American to treat WORKERS as if they were in China or in some other third world nation.

Moreover as a Retired United States Armed Forces Military Veteran of the Vietnam Era. I received training in people skills, supervisory, leadership and management. And I am very much capable of recognizing a disgraceful working environment when I see one, and Wal-Mart Store #2615 is definitely such an environment.

In addition, workers cannot speak up for themselves because they are fearful of terminations----as so many other outstanding workers.

Why do I use the term workers instead of associates? Because Wal-Mart WORKERS are NOT presently being treated as ASSOCIATES, as defined in Webster’s Dictionary.

Even more sickening is why CUSTOMERS, and former WORKERS continue supporting the ill treatment of American Workers in the State of Georgia in the 21st Century at Wal-Mart Store #2615.

It seems that Wal-Mart Store #2615 and the State of Georgia EMPLOYEES need a union ASAP. And as a person of conscious, my heart grieves when Wal-Mart WORKERS consistently tell me about Wal-Mart’s “OPEN DOOR POLICY.”

This is a door that LOOKS like, TASTE like, FEELS like, SOUNDS like, SMELLS like the real thing, (An OPEN DOOR). But when workers try walking through this open door. They find themselves getting UP, off the floor after running into---invisible Plexiglas. Then out the door they go. How Sad?

But then again who cares? Surely, not Georgia Elected Officials who seem to have sold Georgia Workers down the drain, under Georgia’s unfair “At Will Employment Law.”

A law wherein workers can be fired “for good cause, bad cause, or for no cause at all," and employers are NOT even required to inform workers why they were fired.

This law also applies to returning United States Military Veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan War. Yet Georgia politicians continue to tell the American Citizens, that they support our troops. How sad?

It is up to the VOTERS to remove politicians from office, that keep Georgia’s sick “At Will Employment Law” alive in our nation, and in the State of Georgia.

So please spread the word by writing letters, e-mails, and inform all Americans to educate themselves concerning the “At Will Employment Law.”

Together we stand-----and divided they win, again, and again, and again! G.B.R.
