Unfortunately I am still employed at this company so I'm going to be leaving its name completely out of this.
I had a great job, 2 weeks after graduating the temp service and getting brought on full time I was promoted to management on 2nd shift. It was the perfect gig, 4 nights a week, every weekend off.
The only thing I hated was having to give up my Thursday nights with my daughters to be at work, but it was a small sacrifice to make the money that we needed to have a good life. I tried hard to get a transfer to morning shift as a member of management, and figured I would have been a shoe in with no write-ups or disciplinary actions whatsoever against me and a great history of training technicians, and being so trusted that they would let me run lines when the direct supervisor wasn't there, not to mention them putting me in paid management classes to further my career. But that wasn't the case, I applied 67 times and was rejected all 67 with no reason, even though the reason was blatantly obvious considering that every time I was beat it was for somebody already on morning shift. last March, they decided they were going to switch us to 5/8 schedule, and I was now looking at losing two nights a week with my daughters… So I asked our plant boss if he would give me a leadership transfer to morning shifts because I could not lose two nights a week with my daughters, he agreed that he could in front of an entire auditorium full of workers, then the next day I got an email from our director of human resources informing me that the only way I would ever see day shift was to step down from management. At this point I just throw in the towel and give up, I would rather lose the money than the time with my kids, so I turn in my resignation and pick a spot making $5 less an hour in another same company Warehouse on day shift, and the day that I start on mornings they Grant the female lead on night shift with huge boobs and a huge butt a leadership transfer to morning shift with no questions asked. I filed an ethics complaint, and even included sheet upon sheet of rejected day shift applications, the email from the human resource director, and the transfer they granted the female lead, and 4 Weeks later HR got back to me and told me my claim was completely unsubstantiated and being closed. I talked to about a dozen different attorneys that told me I had nothing as far as a ethics case against the company or even a discrimination case.
