AN OPEN LETTER

TO

WISCONSIN GOVENOR SCOTT WALKER

By: George Boston Rhynes,

Dear Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker!

YES!  Ameican Workers need rights too!  http://walmartstore2615.blogspot.com/

This is an open letter in an attempt to show you what workers must face and endure when WORKERS are ignored by their EMPLOYERS. My case is a perfect example of Why we need WORKERS rights that created the middle class in America.

As you are probably already aware. That Georgia is an “At Will To Work State.” Wherein a worker can be terminated for good cause, bad cause or for no cause at all without even a reply from EMPLOYERS. (Much like Wal-Mart Stores Inc.)

On March 20, 2008 I was terminated from Wal-Mart Stores Inc. Store #2615 where the Store Manager allegedly Wrongfully Terminated me under the heading of “Inability to Perform Job.” The Store Manager never entered me into the required “Wal-Mart Four Week Training Program” which was designed for all Wal-Mart Stores Inc. Sporting Goods Department Managers around the country.

Moreover because companies can treat workers as if they were workers in China or in some other Third World Nation. After nearly three years Wal-Mart Store President, Board of Directors and Walton Family has failed to respond to one of my questions. To save time I will simple provide links of information surrounding my personal and disgraceful case of “Wrongful termination.”

After Three Years Wal-Mart Stores Has Refused to Answer MY Valid questions.  These questions can be found on other of my blogs.

Now Governor Scott Walker; what are workers to do? What would you do if you or a member of your family was terminated without even a courteous reply?

Wal-Mart Dollars & Who Receives Them? Store Manager Hal, #2615, "I No Longer Shop At Wal-Mart Stores Inc. Workers need OUR help!

Tuesday, May 4, 2010

SUBJECT:  Wal-Mart, NAACP, AARP, etc., & (The Money Issue) Is this why Wal-Mart Workers continues to be WRONGFULLY TERMINATION?

TO: My Fellow American, Blog, and beyond

I was wrongfully terminated from Wal-Mart Stores Inc., on March 20, 2008, at Store #2615 in Valdosta, Georgia. For over two years and three months Wal-Mart Stores Inc., President/CEO has refused to answer my VALID questions concerning my wrongful termination. I can only imagine how many other Wal-Mart Workers have given up hope by Wal-Mart failure to address VALID rebuttals from Wrongfully Terminated Workers. See Blog:

It seems that our Civil and Human Rights Organizations have sold their soul to Wal-Mart and left American Workers without any recourse. Yes! America’s Largest Retail Giant seems to have crushed the best fighters in America by giving donations that has guaranteed Wal-Mart shield remain in place for the protection of Wal-Mart Stores Inc and this includes the NAACP.

There was a time when many organizations and institutions would have been on the firing line for Workers Rights---but no more! Have organizations found a resting place in the amount of money they receives from Wal-Mart Stores Inc., at the expense of mistreated, wrongfully terminated, and discriminated against workers? The American Customers must stop burying their head in the sand like the legend concerning the Ostrich Bird. I will no longer contribute to making Wal-Mart a god beside God and answers to no one when it comes to Workers Rights.

SPECIAL NOTE:  I no longer shop at any of Wal-Mart Stores and will expand my efforts until all Wal-Mart Workers are treated with respect, dignity, and worth. (Not as workers in China or in some other third world nation).

Dear Mr. George Boston Rhynes,

I have read your articles and stand to salute your cause and your new stand against Wal-Mart. Surprisingly, Goodwill Industries does the same thing using the ill New Mexico, "At will employment". It is an organization that treats its employees the same way as Wal-Mart. Suddenly you can find yourself out of work, from one day to the next, with no reason. They emphasize that you can walk away from them as well, if you so desire. They spend so much time having you sign policy after policy...and going to supervisor meetings to learn how to fire and terminate people so that the company is protected. I only had eight months with Goodwill and I just left suddenly for a new job. I am disgusted at how they use the "clients" and pay them a minimal amount per hour. Their treatment towards store management is abhorrent.

I, like you, wish to stand against these Corporate whores. We are giving America away and ruining the earth in the process.

To think that I was against Unions for so many years. After experiencing and learning the hard way what this "At will employment" means, fight to have Unions!!!!!

Good luck and God bless you and your brothers in arms.
