New manager named Rod came in at Wal-Mart this week Monday.
Today he got a call from Marsh's office building asking for business references and apparently that pissed him off. I had dropped off a resume at the Marsh office building around 1 1/2 weeks ago or so..
He called me into his office via one of the Customer Service Manager (CSM) who asked me to follow her. He wrote down some questions asking me if I was happy at Wal-Mart, asked me why I am looking for another job. I told him that since the store has cut everyone's hours except for the salaried people down to 20+ hours a week, it's hurting me financially and I cannot live on this. I told him I needed at least 40 hours a week, plus I needed better pay since I was making $7.25 an hour. I also said I would be more happier if I had more hours.
So he handed me a green sheet of paper that had the words, "Exit Counseling" and the written explaination was "unsatisfactory performance". I knew that wasn't true since he's pissed off that I am not showing any loyalty to Wal-Mart which is what my impression was from him was all about. I told him I am not signing it since the reason was not true. So, he fired me instead. I asked why am I being fired? He said, "for insubordination". I asked what did I just insubordinate about? He wouldn't answer that question. So I guess he means that I had insubordinated him for refusing to sign the paper.
So, now I am out of a job and I'm in a panic and still need a better job. I've had 3 interviews already and none called back. I'm very very sick in my stomach from all this and feeling downright depressed.
This sucks.
I hope I find a new job REAL SOON or I'm dead.
