I'm not speaking for all home depots but this one and a few others in the district screw their employees out of their pay!
That one in Hornlake, MS sucks!
I worked there for about 2 years maybe more and you come in and bust your you know what, deal with some rude customers and some managers that dont care about anyone but themselves.
Their way of saying thank you for a year or more of hard work and dedication is oh well we're going to give you a 30 cent raise! (If you even get that at all).
So I got tired of being pooped on and looked for another job, got it and Michael Cain (assistant manager) told me to go ahead and take my paid personal time that I had acquired for the year so I wouldnt lose it, so I did. (40 hours worth - one week of pay).
When I went to pick up my paycheck it was a week short, my personal time was not on the check and when I asked him about he said he would check into it - it took two more weeks to do that.
He then came back and told me that if I would have worked 8 hours after taking my personal (paid) time off I would have been paid for the week. Well he failed to tell me that before I took the time off.
Now ask yourself this, would you cheat yourself out of a weeks worth of pay if you only had to work 8 hours to get? I didnt think so.
If he would have told me about having to work eight more hours after my time off I would have worked it. I'm not going to sit there and cheat myself out of a weeks worth of pay... That's stupid... Especially when I had a house note due and I was depending on that check to pay it with.
Oh and the funny thing is two more weeks after that I get a check in the mail that was for 40 hours of vacation pay that was owed to me as well, but I didnt have to work to get that.
I want what is owed to me and fair I worked hard and busted my * for a year to acrue that personal time now I want what is rightfully mine.
