Please help me
Hi there!

My friend sent me your page because we both used to work at Sam’s Club.

She still works there as a cashier but I was wrongfully terminated Monday night May 7, 2007.

I have been a faithful employee for over a year there.

I worked in the Optical center.

I worked there part time, go to school full time and intern as well.

Wednesday, May 2, 2007 I clocked in earlier, at 4:00, wasn’t secluded until 4:30 so as I was on my way down I got distracted and didn’t end up going down there till 4:24.

All night long I didn’t have one member it felt like so when I went to take my break I lost track of time.

I was called back to Optical because there was a member waiting, although I didn’t get the page because I was upstairs in the break room.

One of the managers Robert came up to tell me and asked me how long I had.

I said 2 minutes because at that time I realized that I had lost track.

So I went down there a minute later and they were gone.

Later on Robert comes in optical leaning on my desk, right in my face (too close for comfort) and asked me if I was on my lunch.

I said “On my lunch, I was on break.” He asked me if I knew if breaks were only supposed to be 15 min? I said yes, then he asked me how long was I up there, I said like 20.

I knew that I had messed up. That night I clocked out at 8:20 instead of 8:30 because I didn’t want to get in trouble again for having clocked in early.

My next day back to work was Monday. My manager was acting weird so I knew something was up but had no idea what. About 8:00 I was called up to the manager’s office and the manager from the front end (she’s new I don’t know her name) terminated me.

All the time that I worked at Sam’s I have never got a member’s complaint, never written up, never couched, not a D-day, nothing.

I don’t understand how they can just fire me like that.

They said that I stold company hours which makes sense but I don’t think that it’s fair that other people get all these warnings and I just jet canned.

Now my friend is saying that Robert (Robert C?) told everyone that I lied to him, which I didn’t.

I don’t think that it’s fair.

I feel that they were just making an example out of me.

I not looking for my job back or anything.

Funny thing is that day I got fired I was going to put my 2 weeks in but couldn’t because, Debbie (the lady that does that) wasn’t there that day.

I just feel like it wasn’t fair to me at all and I know when I’m mistreated. I’m asking for advice, is there anything that I would be able to do?

I really don’t know what to do. Like I said I don’t want my job back, I just want justice.
