What is the name of your state? Ohio
I'm hoping you can help me here..First off i am the Mom and man am i mad..Try to make this fast..My daughter has worked for 3 years at a bowling alley, 11/2 of which as shift manager, she went to work2 weeks ago and received 2 disciplinary action reports..1 for talking to another employee about a staff meeting..1 was for calling the manager at home the night before when all hell broke loose and she needed him, he says she made him look like an idiot, because he refused to come in..The first write up the other employee denied she had done, talking about the meeting..And the second one well, he made himself look bad there..Anyway when she got these she asked these 2 other employees to write a statement saying why the write ups were untrue so she could defend herself..They agreed to write them and also agreed the write ups were a joke..In her handbook it says to call the corporate offices if you feel you have been treated unfairly..As this all happened on a weekend, on Monday morning she called the human resourses rep. at corporate..he said that getting those statements from the employees would be a good thing to do..Monday night after talking to the rep. she walked into work and was handed termination papers saying " 2 employees have written statements that she tried to coerce/blackmail them into giving the original statements"..Now obviously she was stabbed in the back but good by the employeesand also obviously the manager got a call from the human resourse guy..but in the meantime we have contacted the CEO of the comp. and he brushed us off onto another human resourses jerk...Frankly I am glad she is out of that place but now when she fills out an application she has to write blackmail on there for the rest of her life?? This must follow her forever?? This was so obviously a personal thing done by the manager, to cover his own actions or inactions, but the talking heads don't seem to care...She's 20 years old and trying to work through college...is there now recourse here? Some way of even making them prove it, I mean they won't even tell us what these "blackmail letters" say..I always thought you had to have power over someone to blackmail them, she had no control over hours or pay or anything...is there anything to be done??? This is just not right....Doesn't this come under defamation of character??? Thanks for any help...The Mad Mom...
