The manager that was making the schedules for my department was transferred to a different store. She had been letting me have Sundays off for church. The lady that replaced her told me that she has changed my availability b'c she doesn;t allow her employees to have a weekwnd as unavailable. I told her that I have church on Sundays and she said(and I quote), "Wal-mart is to be your number one priority. Eveything else will have to take a back seat." I can't quit till I find something else, but that reaaly made me angry. I guess I'll get fired when my wife goes into labor,b'c I will leave work early or call in if it's on a day I work.

Wow, telling you that Walmart is to be your number one priority really isn't cool. I mean, I could see if you wanted every Friday and Saturday night off to go party. But, geez, they can't give you off for church?

Walmart wants your life. Lock, stock and barrel. She could have diplomatically said "Sorry I can't make an exception for you". Find another job. They aren't worth the trouble to complain. I once applied and got turned down. I'm just too good for them.

actually by law they can not tell you you cant go to church. thats a religiuos discrimintation and if you are fired for not working sundays due to religious reasons you can sue there asses and you WILL win.
Id go over her to HR and report this. seriously

Consider yourself lucky that they turned you down. They are a terrible place to work.

But if you accepted the job without that stated religious requirement, then they can tell you that you have to work Sundays, and that's that.

You know, I was gonna start a similar thread tonight...dude that story sucks. I hope you get outta there and move onto something better soon.
Me? I just absolutely hate my job...and it's a "job" not a career. I took the job because it's all I could get due to the economy and all, it's been 6 mo and my head is about to explode. I had an interview 2 weeks ago and a physical/drug test last wk for a new job which is absolutely a "career"...I'm walking around with my phone in my hand waiting to see that # come up. Hopefully the new year hold's better things for many of us employment wise. And no pun intended but..."keep the faith!" |

I honestly can't get over the "Wal Mart is your 1st priority" remark. I've seriously have grown to despise WM for so many different reasons. Does anyone realize in the last few years we've had our share of disgruntled WM employees??... |
