I had been sick for a while and tried to work. Wal-Mart knew that I was sick and a manager told me I had to ask permission to go to the bathroom. I called out the next day because I thought I had a kidney stone. I went to the doctor and they did some tests at the local hospital and they said I had chrons disease. The doctors wrote me a notice to stay out of work for one week. I turned the notice into Lisa the personnel manager at wal-mart. I asked for a copy but the refused to give me a copy.
When I went back for a follow up visit to the doctor he released me to go back to work. I received a threatening telephone call from a manager who told me she was going to fire me. When I came in I did not get to clock in they paged me over the loud speaker and told me to go to personnel.
When I went in Connie Wilkbanks and Lisa was there they had told me I had been fired for misorderly conduct which was my absences. I did not get a chance to talk to no one. I filed for unemployment and got a notice today saying I was denied because of wal-mart bullshit lies. They tried to say I never called or came in in which I did call to report my absences. They said I was at fault for the termination of my employment.
I filed for an appeal and haven't heard anything at this time. I was told by another employee of wal-mart she was fired and they made up an excuse why she couldn't receive unemployment either.
