Circuit City has recently addressed computer work in there stores competing with Best Buy they decide to start there own program.
First they want all employee's in the computer department to do this while waiting on customers.
Second they dont want to give us more money.
Third they say they will write us up and eventually fire those who do not do the work.
I've been working on computers for many years and don't have a problem working on them now but I was hired as a salesman and took a lot less money then a tech would be paid. I've been there now for 10 months and have helped a few customers with small issues nothing major but now I'm being forced into doing this extra work for way less then a tech would be paid. I've read everything within my state wich has no or very few laws for its workers and have no other option but to find other employment or do the work at a drastically reduced pay scale then what I use to get doing tech work.
When hired in I explained to the manager I couldn't do computer work for that pay and he said no problem they didn't do in store work anyhow. Maybe I'm wrong but throwing that kind of work on a employee is dirty and underhanded and its not just our store it is happening nation wide.
