Thread regarding Sears layoffs

Peggy Mitchell- Will She be Fired? (Chicago Ridge, Ill)

The company’s decline has also exacted a toll on its workers. Peggy Mitchell, 55, who works full time unloading delivery trucks at the Sears in Chicago Ridge, Ill., said she barely makes enough to make ends meet.

Ms. Mitchell, who has four children, earns $10.75 an hour and cannot afford the company’s health plan. “Walmart pays more than that,” she said.

I read that last night with abject horror. She will no doubt be fired. I can only hope she gets a better paying job somewhere else soon.

Companies can fire anyone they want for violating any company policy that they want.
