Friendly Pines Camp
Something happened to me by Friendly Pines Camp

I worked for Friendly Pines Camp twice in 1996 and 1997 for the summer jobs as dish/prep and am Deaf (Hearing Impaired). Everything went beautifully in 1996 with FPC.in 1997, I asked them that I wanted to work for them again as dish/prep. They did. Everything seemed pretty good until around in July 1997, My kitchen manager named Chris (Christiana from England and husband named Rod).

Chris had been harrassed me with many abusive words, forced me to work endlessly knowing I had a problem with my hands. I did not realize it was carpal tunnel syndrome (short for cts). I told her about it. She laughed and tell me never mind what i had, just kept working. I felt like it was "deaf" slavery. I told her that most of her kitchen employee chatted for hours and hours while I worked hard washed dishes and prepared some foods. She said to me "whatever." I had been friendly, been good to them for the whole summer and made some good jokes. There was American Indian woman named Miss Gonzalez who always been friendly with me and somehow I noticed her fear of something I dont know until I have seen what happened with Chris. Not realized that Mrs. Bebe May is her best friend. Know each other for a very long time. After I see my doctor about my hands, my neurologist suggested me to take one week vacation for its' sake.

I called Mrs. Bebe May and she agreed. When I got back to work, she wanted to talk to me first along with Chris and one man counselor who know some sign language. Mrs. May asked me if I have ever touched or flirt with someone in the kitchen? I was shocked and surprised that she accused me for something I did not. I found out that she came to see and talked with Miss Gonazlez. Miss Gonazlez is a diabetic and other medical problems. She confessed to me that she was sorry for all fibes she told Mrs. Bebe May. She blamed diabetic for this. Not true.

Miss Gonazlez is afraid of Mrs. Bebe May. Because I remembered she lived on her property and lived in trailer near Mrs. May's pond.

Mrs. Chris got in bad mood, bad behavior, etc toward me all the times many times often than others. What did I do? Nothing. She knew I been good to her and friendly. Did not realize that she was in trouble with the US Government for illegal embellzement with her co-partner in Prescott, AZ regarding Resort or Hotel.

US Gov't ordered her and her hubby, Rod to be deported to England. Both of them had two or three horses on Mr. And Mrs. Jack May. (Bebe's husband)

I was told by other kitchen employee that Chris/Rod's stuff, horses, etc were being seized by Gov't. Mrs. Bebe May went to the Prescott Courier to tell that was not true. She knew the truth and wanted to protect Chris and Rod as much as she could. She failed.

Chris treated me in abusive ways. I decided I had enough of her, told her I quit (in August 1997) and went to let Mrs. Bebe May know what was going on. Useless! She was in a big denial and covered up for Mrs. Chris.

I reported to EEOC in PHX, AZ about it and denied me because her claims that ADA not covered. Do you know why? Because kitchen employee were only about 10-12. There were about over 30 employees included camp counselor, staffs, medical, etc.

So I concluded that there are too many winks, loopholes, bribery, manipulation around at Friendly Pines Camp.

Uncle Bud was the nice man I meet and we talked for a short time. At that time, he was old man.

All of this are on Mrs. Bebe May. She need to be punished heavily. Lies are not acceptable.
