We have been discussing this for a little while now...
My husband job situation is HORRIBLE! He has had one bad boss after another! Let me explain before I ask my question!
My Hubby is the Assistant Manager at a rather well known national resteraunt chain, and quitting is not an option right now as he makes enough money to support us while I am in school, and while we are TTC. He has worked for this chain since high school, when he started out just washing dishes and has worked his way up. Well they transfered him to Colorado to help out with a new store... which is when everything went downhill!
His first boss in Colorado was taking money from the stores registers and safe, as well as hiring his own family and refusing to hire anyone who was not Mexican, trying to get my husband fired for being white. (We are NOT racist people, and this alone bothered my husband who is of mixed heritage to none other!) So he called the Director of Human Recourses and got this guy fired...along with the Area Manager who was allowing this stuff to go on...
With the new area manager came a transfer to another store, this stores manager was a nightmare too! He was getting paid to work 50 hours a week while only working 20, he was also dealing drugs out of the bathroom at the store!! So my husband again called HR and reported this... Boss number 2...FIRED!
However when this happened the Area Manager started being a jerk to my husband... (the boss that had been fired was a relative by marriage of his) and so my husband was transfered back down to the previous store where they refused to promote him but brought in his current boss.
This girl is insane!! On top of being addicted to numerous pain killers and smoking marijauna, she just can't control herself! She feeds her family by taking home up to 3 meals a day! (Stealing!!) And she allows the staff members to smoke pot outside of the store... my husband confronted her and she said if he did anything she would fire him... so this combined with the fact that his area manager is constantly being a jerk to him makes him scared to tell HR that this is going on.
I on the other hand am SICK of this!! I called the Area Manager myself (I was an employee there for several years also) and told him I was quitting and why...he said "well no one else has complained, must not be a problem."
Then another girl had her husband call (she was afraid of getting fired) and he was told "Look, if you can't tell me who you are calling for, then I can't do anything."
My husband is debating writing an annonymous letter to the Humane Recourses describing the treatment and the problems that are going on here... Is writing a letter the thing to do??
This is stressing me out to no end, and while I understand my husbands fears of getting fired, I also fear that he will get fired for not speaking up!! His problems at work are putting an enormous amount of stress on both of us, and I want something to be done! We have been praying on this a lot but just can't seem to grasp any thought as to what should really be done!
Please offer any ideas or support you may have!! Thank you!!
