On the anniversary of the French Revolution against a corrupt old regime,
the U.S. House of Representatives took a step towards independence from
the clammy grip of the fossil fuel companies.
This has direct implications on Moody AFB.
No more pipelines. Solar power now.
George Rhynes asks if Wal-Mart can fire employees who disarmed
an armed robber for not following procedures,
why can’t the manager he says didn’t follow procedures when
the manager fired him be fired in return?
I wonder why Wal-Mart procedures and profit are more important
than employee safety, well-being, or the drain on public resources
to cover what Wal-Mart does not?

Just another Wal-Mart Fired Untrained Department Manager.
This is an
initial introduction to a much bigger story of truth that cannot and will
not be hidden forever! Nor will Wal-Mart Workers here in American continue
to be mistreated and ignored as if we were in the Republic of China or in
some other third world nation. Galatians 6:7, Saint Luke 4:18……
He was one of the
several employees I supervised as Sporting Goods Department Manger at
Wal-Mart Store #2615 in Valdosta, Georgia. On March 20, 2008, I was
wrongfully terminated for “INABILITY TO PERFORM JOB” without
training.
Video by George Boston Rhynes.
It has been 3 1/2 years since my wrongful termination and I have
written Wal-Mart Stores Inc. thirty letters, thirteen videos, 34 pages
of documented proof that I was never trained; nor entered into Wal-Mart
Stores Inc. four week mandatory training program as other employees.
Moreover, it should be a shame and disgrace that several former and
current President Mike Duke has all ignored me as if I was a worker in
the Republic of China or in some other third world nation!
Even more un-American is that Chairman David Glass along with his
entire Wal-Mart Board of Directors has followed the local Wal-Mart
Store Manager at Store #2615 in what is definitely unprofessional
behavior along the lines of respecting workers rights. Wal-Mart
Executives seem to believe that the American People (customers) have
made Wal-Mart Stores Inc. a god beside God and answers to no one.
More videos will follow from real workers and former assistant managers
until you are as sure as I am that Americans need workers Rights in
this NATION for all employees.
As elected officials (government officials) I do hope that you begin to
look at workers rights and my wrongful termination without any recourse
because I am in an “At Will to Work State”, Georgia. This means
any worker can be fired for GOOD cause, BAD cause, or for no cause at
all and like Wal-Mart. They are not required to provide a reason for
you, your spouse, child or neighbor for why they wrongfully terminated
you!

We are 100% sure that there is nothing Wal-Mart Executives or Board of
Directors will or can do in my case or cases like mine. Therefore,
as a Retired Military of the United Armed Forces that followed
our “Code of Conduct” in the military need a code of conduct for
(ALL) American Workers.
My wrongful termination has forced me to follow the same “CODE OF
CONDUCT” that all United States Military Veterans had to
follow. Therefore, if I could place my life on the line and face
death for foreigners on foreign battlefields then surely I can stand
up for my own family members and love ones.
Yes, I intend to fight as hard for myself, my own family and fellow
American Workers here in the Home Land! God Bless both the righteous
and the not so righteous. Peace, love and overstanding. We are not
who we claim to be; but who we prove ourselves to be over a given
period of time and after three and one-half years Wal-Mart EXECUTIVES
has proven who they are to the American people and the world.

John, There was a Conversations that Matter group held here June 9th to
discuss the changes coming with the closing of the state hospitals as
it relates to persons with developmental disabilities. We had about 40
local people who were consumers, family members and some service
providers in addition to officials from the Region 4 office that covers
this area. The services for them will be drastically smaller than those
planned for persons with a diagnosis of mental illness, but this
training announcement has one session left in this area…June 28 in
Thomasville.
Scroll all the way to the bottom to find information for
the Thomasville
event.
The one we had here was sponsored by the
Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities
and All About Developmental Disabilities, an Atlanta-based advocacy
group. One of the things we learned was that these Crisis Response
Systems supposedly have been in place since June 1, one based in
Valdosta and one in another part of the region. You can go to the
DBHDD website to see the counties included in our area.
The teams were
formed by contracting with organizations from California and Indiana
(instead
Prisoners have to be released from prison or the county jail into the same community, and can’t get a job because they’re ex-cons, and often not even an apartment. Result? Homeless ex-cons turning to crime.
Female ex-cons in Lowndes County have some places they can turn to for
housing. Male ex-cons have only the Salvation Army, and they have to leave
there every morning early.
In Atlanta they’ve examined their situation and determined that
housing is the most central issue.
Which would we rather do? Pay as much per year to send them back to jail
as it would cost to send them to college?
Or find a way to provide housing for them?
Local tax dollars need to be spent in a way that benefits
the entire community, and not just a few. Maybe we can
afford to do something about getting ex-prisoners a place to live and jobs so they stay
out of crime and improve the local economy.
Actually, can we afford not to do that to reduce incarceration expenditures?
