Note to reporter....nice try, whoever you are, but I think it would be a little early to let the cat out of the bag. Everything is remaining Anonymous until such time as things are filed. To tell you the truth, Ed does not know who the attorney is, nor has he asked, because everyone is anonymous! I am posting a lot of this blog with information received from past and present employees, so in effect it is their web blog to cry out to the world for help. It is becoming increasingly apparent that not only retail but a lot of corporations are opting for less than ethical ways to increase the coffers for their investors. I am not saying investors are directing this, but the pressure of executives (I use that lightly) to increase sales year after year will undoubtedly cause some of those uncreative executives to do what their uncreative predecessors have done forever....cut those labor costs. The funny thing is, where does it end...with the failure of the company as a whole when there's no more to take?
Now, if your truck comes and there's no straps or bars holding the load, take a picture. After you unload the truck and pack it into your back room, take a picture. Take a picture of the carts and merchandise that you have to block aisles with to restock while open. Then take pictures of the way the store looks in general. That one is for your protection, for it seems this company likes to play the 'cover your ass' game.
For a little insight on what is going on with corporate America, I direct your attention to http://www.bullyonline.org . This particular web site is from the United Kingdom (England, for those of you scratching your heads) and shows that they addressed this problem about five years ago, but in America the plan is "Fug 'em, we pay their salary and they'll do as we please". Well, that will come to an end soon, my fellow Americans. Are we going to let those stuffy British one up our labor organizations? None of these retail organizations will allow unions in, so we'll just have to get legislation passed protecting our rights in a democratic society. I spoke of a grassroots, straighten out corporations movement previously...well it has already begun and was done without a lot of fanfare so that the powers that be could not stop it. It has taken on political overtones to get at the heart of the problem...all that money going from businesses to political parties so that legislation will be passed to benefit those businesses. If the government is so hell bent on granting privileges to these companies then if the companies do something unethical the officers running those companies should be held responsible and given jail time and large fines. Eventually this will stop all this unethical manipulation of ordinary peoples lives. No more of the excuse "Business as usual".
