WalMart SuperCenter
Assistant manager told coworkers about my assault, violating privacy

My husband works third shift at our local walmart supercenter. On the night of June 21st at 9:20pm, my husband left for work. Around 10pm after putting our son to sleep I began to clean up the house. After filling the trash can I decided to take the trash out to the outside cans.

While I was outside I was raped and awoke in the driveway almost an hour later. After making sure my son was ok I called my husband at work and told him to come home. Before he could leave one of the assistant managers asked if he would be back once he got the situation assessed... My husband walked out.

After going to the hospital to get checked out we returned home and my husband decided to call his boss to let him know what was going on and that he would not be back to work that night. The assistant manager completely understood and seemed to be sympathetic.

However, the next day the entire store knew what had happened to me. The third shift assistant manager had told the store employees that I had been raped. Now I can't go shopping for anything without everyone staring at me. This was a huge invasion of our privacy. The manager had no right to tell anyone what had happened.

Walmart associates should feel free to tell their boss's personal reasons for them not being at work without fearing that the entire store will find out.

They can't get away with this...
