I work for a very large and successful company. Getting new hires by the dozen. it seems that our "Higher Up-Go To People" are harder to catch with details. Important details. I work for a casino and things are not what they should be. Gaming has been notified, and we were fined for using "Illegal Gaming/Gambling Chips". We employees had no clue we were not supposed to allow these chips. But was told USE THEM. Of course alot of employees r being dismissed/let go/laid off anything but terminated. Most of us are being sent t0 work out of town in another sister-casino.(becasue they said somebody didnt show up to work so they're short help) We NEVER had to cover an out of town persons absence. But, we go for fear they will write u up, claiming we r undependable & not a team player, etc etc. Basically exempt u from ur unemployment so now they can fire ur ass. I am aware all jobs have similar problems in one form or another. But, when ATF & Gaming start harassing u. when it should be my BIG BOSS. NO WAY. My company has stolen 38 hours of my vacation,my deductions ddidnt get taken out of my check making me ineligible til open season. Another example: I was asked to take some bottles of wine, about 4 cases of beer, and some Vodka(9) to the casino in another town, I didnt think anything of it because I was working there anyhow. Apparently somebody called in. So I took all this alcohol in my car. I know ignorance of the law is no excuse. I was called in by the Alcohol-Tobacco-Firearm person. They were PO'd. Treated me like a damn criminal. Finally getting in touch with our WareHouse/Beverage/Shift Manager (yes we all have more than 1 job responsiblilty) She came in and was PO'd that I bothered her on her day off. I was told if I didnt come and answer these ATF boys questions Id be out of a job. So I gave them to my beverage lady and left. I didnt get paid for those 2 hours and still my beverage lady blames me for almost getting her fired. Just another example of bad management..Now Im in need of answers to some of my questions. Have no $$ to go ask lawyer, and my boss's kids are pretty much our town lawyers and such. I would like to know more about thr FAMILY MEDICAL LEAVE ACT. or a web site that I can depend on. A free site.
