Wrongfully terminated!
I was terminated April 2016. This company has more than two hundred cameras. I was terminated due to an employee stating that I was pushing carts around and telling other employee's I was going to kick their ass. I had no knowledge of the altercation until another employee ask me about it. No supervisor or manager ever approached regarding this. The employee that made me aware of this kept coming back to me with this. Prior to this I had reported my supervisor from 2015 until February 2016 regarding her belittling me in front of other staff members and harassment. Not only did I report this behavior to my manager verbally and in writing. I also reported this to the companies hotline. Nothing was ever done. When the false altercation came about I ask that they review the video footage, this would have cleared me. They would not. See something say something is what got me fired. I had proof that one of the employee was falsifying the time sheet and I report this because my supervisor was signing off on this. After being approved for my unemployment they tried to deny my benefits. I had a hearing and won they could not or did not produce the witnesses they claim they had. They did not even have the correct date in which they terminated me. I'm still unemployed. Lot of clerical/records experience. Was with the company for 13years and six months. Was always top performer. Reported to work on time and ready to work each night. What kind of people lie and cheat and keep a job. Well I am still in my house I have not missed a meal. The only reason I'm still upset is because I lost my health insurance. I was 58 years old at the time. People my age don't need to lose their jobs. GOD has a plan I just don't know what it is. I will continue to look for employment. Attorney's don't take on many wrongfully terminations they are into slip and falls. The company I work for is worth billions.
Write the CEO and tell him your issue. What do you have to lose?
I was wrongfully terminated from a job as well (after serving 15 years on the job). I had a lead who did not treat me fair with the work (which made me receive a poor score in my production). And I kept complaining about him to my supervisor and instead of the supervisor correcting my lead, I winded up losing my job in April 2016. And you all would not believe that I was called back to this company on September of 2017 as a temporary employee. And I'm still w/them today. And the lead who did not treat me right w/the work was laid off four months after I returned to the company. And the supervisor I kept complaining to & she would not do anything has been DEMOTED!!@ She now sits at a desk & do paper (clerical) work all day long! Some people don't believe/understand that they are going to pay a price for everything they do.
sorry to hear about your troubles vicki, you said you were with them 13 years , it sounds to me as they were trying to get rid of you and they found out how to do it and not the legit way if i were your i would look into it more this also sounds like a big popular grocery store to as well ...i would look into it more and yes it was a wrongfull termination
Must be Walmart
Vickie: thanks for sharing your story. I can relate to you, I was terminated in October 2015. I was 55 at the time and before they created a reason to terminate me, I saw a familiar pattern. Salary plus age. Unlike You, I did lose the home I was blessed with for 21 years. I am 57 years old now and I am still out of work. Like you said one of our concerns is health insurance which has been scary and very expensive.
What I've learned is nothing happens by happenstance. God allows every situation for our good. Like You, I don't know what His plan is for me going forward, but I am trusting it will work out for my Good.
Much success to you.

This happened to me too! But I did not get terminated...I eventually quit and moved out of state! Someone said they heard me say I would do bodily harm to anyone who was listening!!! How stupid could a person be to say something like that in a work environment? I am much more professional than that! I do understand. You said the key words though....GOD HAS A PLAN!!! Just keep your faith and He will work it out for you. I'm sorry that I don't have any job-related info for you but I thought a little support and encouragement would help! Good luck! God bless!
lol its fuuny how everyone is like "dont worry god will guide you" xD
Don't let that job define u.You have a great potential.Jobs cone & go but integrity goes a long way.Find ur passion & something better will come along.Age is just a #
My son was wrongfully terminated from Southwest Airlines an employee an manager lied on him.he had been working for 11 yrs good records my advice to everyone out there do not go thru arbitration ,the arbitrator was a private arbitrator we believe he was paid off this was a horrible thing this company did to my son I have heard of horror stories of what southwest airlines has done to employees. Maybe one day they will be like other airlines gone an forgotten. Fly american airlines
I have worked a total of sixty-six days since this termination. As of today I no longer have any financial resources everything is gone. Have applied and sent out more than three hundred resumes and nothing, not even a temporary position. Today its just one day at a time. How long will it be before I have to beg on the streets? I know God sees my current stress I just have to continue being patient. I ask that my Jobcase family prayer for my circumstances.
