I have been working at a high end Chamical plant doing security for Securitas since March of Since I have been here I have been at an uprising force of hatred towards myself, I am a very calm person and it takes alot to make me upset, however my threshold has been pushed on multiple occasions, on a first time, I had an officer who insisted on being late on a regular basis jsut to spite me and no action was taken to remedy the situation even though i had brought it to the attention of my account manager Tanisha Grant as well as my shift Coordinator Angela Jackson, and no action was taken against this woman, at which time I attempted to let it go but couldnt as it became very irritable and was interferring with my time with my family. A little background before we continue this road...
I Live an hour away from my site, this is a 50 mile drive one way, I make 9.50 hourly to guard a chemical plant with items that could destroy half the populance of east st louis in minutes, and yet I am underpaid and do more work than my Supervisors yet they make 15.00 hourly I pay 85 dollars a WEEK in gas with a V6 caravan. I have talked to Tanisha on more than one occasion about getting transfered somewhere closer to home, now with this comes her telling me that I need to take the bus or the metro link (train) yet both of those are 30 minutes away from me in either direction, and I tell her I would stay here for a slightly higher amount of money, to which she tells me, she would like to make more money, this is coming from a woman driving a brand new 2009 Cadillac sports car wearing Gucci sunglasses and $300 dollar shoes... We disucss the fact that the officer that relieves me is constantly late and she tells me this is ok... However one day I am 4 minutes late first time since weve started here, i get a write up and a verbal in the same day, i was right outside of the fenceline stuck at a train... Which i think is unfair since the other officer got no type of write up for relieving me late everynight by 10-20 minutes everytime.
I proceed to Use one of the resources they gave us in orientation, The phone line that will keep your anonymity, That didnt happen I made the phone call proceeded to explain my situation, and about 2 hours later recieved a call for the Account manager stating that I had by passed all means of a "chain of command" yet i told her this was a resource we were given to help us when we felt there was no other option, Weeks pass and she calls me back and tells me that there may be an opening for a Shift coordinator and i would be the first she would call upon due to my knowledge in comptuers and how i had performed at the site, to this day we have had 5 shift corrdinators leave and not once from all the emails and phone calls i sent her have i heard anything from her.
Nothing ever came out of the sitaution with the woman who relieved me late every night with little concern, My most recent terrible turn of events has got me thinking about quitting where i stand, one of the newest shift corrdinators has been spreading rumors about me and telling new people and everyone else all kinds of thigns that arent true, i have gone to my supervisor about this and nothing has been done, last night i came in from a patrol to find that my soda had a Loogey in it, and myself and the woman who hates me were the only ones with access to the security office, so i sent an email out to my supervisr telling her of my find, i come into work tonight and get berated with the fact that the two are friends she didnt even bother to ask if it had transpired or not because i am not trust worthy and this was all a sham to get the supervisor spot from her and that formal harassment charges will be filed onto me, yet to this woman i dont speak or look at, when she needs to know something that pertains to work i tell her but any other time i dont, I feel that i am being discriminated against and theres nothing i can do I dont feel that there is anybody within the company that i can go to without some kind of fear of retribution. Now im not one to play the race card, nor am I racist but it doesnt help that 3 of my supervisors are older black females, my account manager is a black female and I am currently the ONLY young White male on the site. I have been in tears at points because of the way i am treated, tears of frustration and confusion I cannot understand why for the life of me people would act this way to one person jsut trying to do his job to support his wife and kids, My wife found this site with all these reports on it and it makes me feel even worse to see more people going through the things they have for this comapny but it makes me feel good to see that someone can post something and be heard.
