I just received their Position Statement today. I thought I'd be able to navigate this without counsel, but their statement is absolutely riddled with lies and inaccuracies. They attempt to defame me based on complete and total fabrication. I'm at such a loss.

To begin, I enjoy watching your videos. Long story short. I have a long history working at Walmart. Back in 2022, I gave a notice to the store manager. In 2023, I got rehired as a temporary remodel associate. During that time, I had to take a leave of absence because of ptsd. My doctor completed the paperwork several days later. Following that, I uploaded all documents to Sedgwick. However, later I heard Walmart doesn’t approve leaves of absences for temporary associates. If this is true, then they shouldn’t have approved it, along with Sedgwick. When I returned to work on June 12th, the tension in the room was thick. During roll call, he never mentioned my name. He then asked, did I miss anyone? I said, yes. He then had a strange expression. That alone revealed something was amiss. Minutes later, he said, the store manager had ordered him to end my employment. The following morning, I called to speak to the store manager. When I asked if my termination had anything to do with taking a leave, she said no. She then said there were too many workers, so she had to let a lot of them go. That made no sense because I saw unfamiliar faces on the overnight crew. I then asked if I could get rehired. She said, no, you cannot work at my store. Work at another Walmart. I couldn’t believe what she said. So, I hired an attorney and uploaded all documents to EEOC. Currently, their position statement reads I would leave my work area. They lied about everything. Every night, the boss signed a mod sheet to confirm I completed the job. During my recent Zoom with my attorney, she said there aren't a lot of damages. And that my case isn't worth a million. Actually, I am not looking to collect a million. I just want compensation for last wages and hopefully front pay. We aren't writing a position statement. Instead, will go to mediation. Could you please provide some information about my situation? Thank you.

Great video! Charge filed in 2019 still being investigated. Not only did the employer make several false accusations in the position statement, all the evidence they submitted with the position statement has been removed due to "Condfidentiality". Nothing was confidential and now all 50+ pages are gone and only the position statement is still in the portal. Why did eeoc allow them to remove all the evidence when it wasn't confidential and it was evidence proving their violations?

Thanks for the video. It was really helpful. What happens if the employer lie in the ROI and on their affidavit? My employer and I both filed for summary judgment. I rebuttal their summary judgment pointing out their lies with witness statements, the company policies rules and regulations, text messages they sent me and also documents they mailed to me. The Agency replied to my motion but didn't dispute and of my claims. Retaliation, racial discrimination, disability discrimination and harassment. I had an Attorney but couldn't afford to pay him through summary judgment phase so he told the AJ he's withdrawing from my case.

Does the same ALJ handle every case involving the same parties like in family court? If they do, do they review all of your cases and complaints or are they limited to single case files? If they are not limited to a single case file of the parties, in your experience do they review/take into consideration past and current files/complaints brought forth from or against either party? I.e. complaints involving the same employer, but different employees bringing similar allegations (where there is smoke there is fire theory) Or is everything separate for each and every case with no access to any other complaints current or past?

In my case, I'm a guy, and another guy at my job sexually harassed me for a while. He was vicious. It was a living hell. The eventual HR investigation was a travesty of one, atrocious, and covered it all up. It was an indignity to cooperate with this lie of an investigation. I don't even want to get more specific than that. What hope is there for people who go through this? That they won't be straight jacketed into silence, as I was?

Just because somebody was fired just afterward doesn’t make the employer on accountable. Do you have a bad attorney? Trust your gut you wouldn’t be writing here if you weren’t knowing that this is bull hang in there and make demands. A simple no about what they’re suggesting they’ll tell you anything in order to do what’s best for them and only them! Don’t give in. you’ll regret it.
