Wrongful Termination at Sam's Club 6625 at San Fernando California 91340

Gabriel H Peregrino is the Tire and Battery Associate that lied on Saturday, 21 April 2007. He wrote a lie stating that I was aggressive, but he only exaggerates and is vindictive. He is a slacker and Ambrosio Galvan and Bill Lang know this but will not admit since they can be fired for any reason since people in California can be terminated At Will.

The following implicates Club Manager Fidel Jacobo

Saturday, 21 April 2007
16:27 PDST
To Sam's Club Asset Protection and management
From Waller, Max Rafael

Incidence

TBC Assoc Gabriel (Assoc ID 2216) did not want to raise the vehicle for mounting and the easier task, the tire of the vehicle. About two week ago he and I had a great half hour talk about animation or know as cartoons. I thought we were having some kind of association but I am wrong. This took place around 13:07 PDST so please review the surveillance tape. You will also see the pranks others have played on me. Review all from two weeks back. Gabriel and I pushed each other. Ambrosio Galvan and Bill Lang know his work habits. Thank you for opening this investigation. I am aware of what constitutes a Hostile Work Place Environment. You, Fidel Jacobo, have been told of TBC Associates works habits. You have not addressed this in any document meeting.

Show the surveillance video as proof. The video would exonerate me of their false charges.

I believe that I was terminated since California is a At-Will Employment state

William Gregory Lang or Bill Lang transferred to a Sam's Club near Palmer Lake in Colorado in early June 2007.

Mr. Lang used to be trusted by me who made the mistake of telling him everything before the Termination on Monday, 23 April 2007.

Bill Lang knows the dirt of Sam's Club 6625 and had told some people in the Club that almost everyone hates Fidel Jacobo and that is why a lot of people quit Sam's Club 6625.

Team Lead Ambrosio Galvan also knows a lot of dirty secrets at Sam's Club 6625, but is nervous about losing his job if he sides with me

Sam's Club PD-57 Investigation/Suspension was NOT adhering to by Club Manager Fidel Jacobo and Membership Manager Esperanza Lopez.

Read the complete policy, PD-57, at the end.

No documentation of any complaints and the San Fernando Police Department or the Los Angeles Police Department ever showed for a "Work Place Violence."

Please show proof since one complaint and one video tape does NOT establish Workplace Violence.

SHOW THE SURVEILLANCE VIDEO!!!

Neither Mr. Jacobo nor Ms Lopez wanted to sign the papers of any meeting between two managers and me for Legal Documentation.

No meetings to address any potential problems at the Tire and Battery Center were brought up by the Team Lead or Management.

As of Monday, 9 April 2007, the people of the Tire Shop are playing pranks and making it appear as if I was becoming forgetful such as the misplacement of tools and personal safety gear.

The suspects are Erick Miron and Mark Castro.

Esperanza Lopez was told and never had a meeting to discuss the topics brought to her attention by me.

Esperanza Lopez was asked to verify this by reviewing the Surveillance video tapes and my request was not honored.

Esperanza Lopez was told about the pranks about two weeks ago but no meeting to diffuse or address serious matters was conducted.

Wal-Mart Stores, Inc does not always follow their guidelines and fire anyone that does not allow their selves to be intimidated!!!

In the early 1990s Esperanza Lopez used to be a cashier at Tres Sierras Store #1 in Pacoima CA 91331 but when she became a manager she was as a friendly to old friends of the Delgado Family. Esperanza's nickname was "Pera."

Esperanza Lopez is a decent manager BUT only honors the request (s) of those that will help her career or that she likes.

If I can get a good attorney I might be able to file the following complaints.

Discriminations types; Disparate Treatment and Disparate Impact

The Waller Family will pray for everyone that is against me

Erick Miron always complained about classical music and started a rumor and told Marco Arins that he and I had a physical fight.

I, Max Rafael Waller, formerly Assoc ID 0035 and Operator 007 proudly served from Tuesday, 13 November 1990 - Monday, 23 April 2007 and only needed about nine years to do a minimal of twenty-five years to retire from Wal Mart Stores, Inc. I was one hundred percent vested in Profit Sharing and had a one month vacation allocated per year.

I am a share holder Wal Mart Stores, Inc stock and I have about 11 shares so he has vested interest at the time of termination.

HOW IT ALL BEGAN

December 2006 Mehmet Ekinci {A Hatchet Man and sent to "clean House" is no longer there but in Fresno California according to Mr. Jason Fastner} said that he was replacing everyone in the tire shop or its proper title: Tire and Battery Center according to Jeff Lopez {no longer work there} and Mark Castro {has recanted} and Bill Lang heard indirectly but will deny it. Max Rafael Waller studied all of Wal-Mart policies and found that if that his remark {INTIMIDATION} could be verified then he would get a coaching for making such a remark. The others are scared to tell the truth.

According to Art who works for the California EDD at http://www.edd.ca.gov/ my ex boss told him that I was fired for
1) Work Place Violence
and
2) Verbal Altercation.

Fidel Jacobo was doing his best so that I would not receive unemployment.

I am receiving unemployment since there was no meeting to talk about Work Place Violence.

People that are fired/terminated due to violence will NOT receive Unemployment Compensation which is commonly known as Unemployment Pay.

On Saturday, 12 May 2007 a relative of mine two Sam's Club 6625 associates possibly a Check Out Supervisor Jay and a female spreading misinformation at Wireless Communication #1, 11916 Foothill Blvd, Lake View Terrace CA 91342; Telephone:1-818-897-1477 and Fax:1-818-897-1467

If Wal-Mart / Sam's Club 6625 could negate what I have written, then I would be in legal trouble.

A lot of information came from Bill Lang who is an insider.

If there has been a violation of company policy, the Associate under investigation may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination. The investigation materials must still be maintained regardless of the outcome of the investigation.

If the investigation is the result of an Open Door, it is the salaried member of management's responsibility to follow up with the reporting Associate. The salaried member of management should ensure the Associate understands how and why the resolution was determined. If the Associate still has unresolved concerns, the Associate should be directed to the next level supervision.

Whenever I go on an interview and the interviewer is a woman, I don't get the job. When I go on an interview with a man as the interviewer, I get the job. It's really strange. I've only been hired once by a woman and she was homosexual (no offense to anyone). It makes it very difficult for me to get a job because most of the interviews I go to have a female interviewer.

Plus I'm going to school for fashion/retail and I've never worked in retail. I believe it could be because all the interviews I go to for retail jobs have female interviewers. Am I being discriminated against?

I was recruited after graduation (3.5 GPA) for a job &
went to 3 interviews and 2 job shadows ...then after the last time I have not heard back...the only thing negative that happened the whole time was in the 1st interview the recruiter said because of my age they would have to find the right team for me to be working with because it wouldn't be right working with younger people...that gave me a weird feeling right away..isn't that like saying to a different race that you can only work with people that are your race...isn't that against the law? I have called the place where the last meeting was and never recieved a call back ( rude?) and also emailed the regional director and said in a nice way that I was open to another meeting or job shadow...should I call the person who was recruiting me? The last meeting was June 19th. I was self employed for years before I went back to school ...so all this corporate stuff is new to me..does it really take 3 weeks to get back to someone

I am currently in the process of changing careers & am quite lost as to what path I want to take. I have been offered a position with The Ritz Carlton, which promises quick promotion within the company. I have also been offered a position with a Metlife Insurance branch as an independent rep.
There are pros and cons to each job:
Ritz Carlton
Cons: Commute (60 Miles each way), Pay for Parking $12.00 a day, .50 paycut
Pros: Promotion Ability, Great Benefits, Travel Benefits (Room Discount), Good Company

Metlife
Cons: Questionable Upward Mobility?, Base Salary & Comission
Pros: Local, Flexibility (No Set Schedule)

I am just not sure which path I want to take and was hoping some people with more knowledge of each industry could provide some insight!

I am getting ready to graduate with a bachelors in Political Science, I had originally wanted to go to law school, but I am becoming more and more interested in "hands on" law enforcement work rather than Law itself, if that makes any sense.

I would love to one day work as a detective but would probably begin as a regular patrol officer after completing training and becoming certified (I live in FL) Would my B.A. be any use to me and help me bypass and educational requirements. I ask this because everyone I discuss this with seems to think I am foolish for wanting to be a police officer after 4 years of college. Any thoughts or insight would be helpful!

TIA

not too far away from the truth. The second company has a stellar reputation, excellent benefits -- the typical sweet benefits package. Both jobs it turns out are essentially the same - glorified receptionist/ office/property mgr jobs. The base salary for job A is lower than I'm used to, but includes the possibility to make a bonus and an apartment. Now I'm hearing horror stories about their apts and mgmt. I work there and I've seen some disorganization but no horr still $$$ maybe very high. Yet if we haven't even gotten started and I'm being slightly stiffed then who's to say where this whole thing is going? In initial discussions the job was to include higher pay, commission & an apt... now it's low w/ a capped bonus + maybe an apt depending on availability. Overall in terms of money, the offers potentially excellent but I was led to believe this job was a entry level sales position and it's just a glorified asst/receptionist/ mgr gig. That's two slight deceptions, isn't it?

my dad and his bro had this publishing company. they both died and the company is closed now. I used to work there but with no insurance. I have a first degree and several other certificates plus I have written 2 books (fiction). I am 35. now they call me to interviews and they are ready to hire me and the next thing I know someone else is. I think they are all afraid that being 'overqualified' is going to make me run away after a few months. not unlikely since these jobs were way lower than my abilities. I feel the urge to start my own job. am I crazy?

I'm 17 years old and I really need a job because I totally have nothin to do in my house. I applied like over 4 jobs already and none of them called. I think it is because I have no experience and those jobs were big coorperations. I applied at the AMC, Sears, Vons, Ralps, and Mervins. I want to apply at starbucks but I don't know who to ask for an application. Also do you have any idea where I should start working and have a big chance of getting accepted.

I'm seventeen years old and I am in a year round school program where I am required to work 6 hours per day and I have to finish all the textbook work (usually 500+pages) in three weeks, and then the cycle starts out all over again. I am now working at Ralphs and all that I have to say is that the pay is horrible and I'm on my feet all day bagging groceries and pushing around shopping carts. I'm too tired to do my homework after work; It's impossible to do anything else there since you can only work as a courtesy clerk if you're a minor. Then I start college in August (I'm a part-time college student and a high school student). My dad has just retired and I will be getting $500 a month. I only get paid $100 a week at Ralphs... not to mention once I sign with the Union (you have to, it's mandatory), they take out $30 from your paycheck, so I might be getting $70 a week. What should I do?

But today, business was really slow and we were overstaffed.
there were too many people there and nothing for us to do, so I went and talked to some other people working there. 10 minutes there our co-manager told me and a different girl told us it was okay to leave 30 minutes early so I did.
