How many other people have been fired, back in 2007 especially, by Wal-Mart for a bogus accusation of "violent act"?

It need not be you, but anyone that you know about who has been thrown away under the false allegation of "violent act". I would like to figure out if Wal-Mart's legalistic department had decided to make a quota for getting rid of anyone they could remotely peg or contort into being "potentially harmful" based upon either contrived statements or the like. I would like to gather as many cases of wrongful termination by Wal-Mart together, so whether it is specifically about being terminated back in 2007 with the stigmatizing accusation of "violent act" or any other bogus reason for loss of employment, please consider replying to this thread.

Other people may reply too, but if you merely wish to express how infallible employers are and how it's all the person how lost their job fault', then I request you be silent - especially if you truly believe I was fired due to a "violent act" you ought to be consistent in your Wal-Mart style reasoning and then conclude that I must somehow be an evil zombie pirate.

this isn't referring to a specifically violent act, but when i worked in a hospital i was accused of sexual harrassment solely because i had complimented somebody on their artistic fingernail paint job.

Didn't you notice how you objectified their fingernails within this very sentence? How very reprehensible! Humph! ... More seriously, that must have stank. I think that people are so on-edge looking for any excuse to use accusations that they often jump the gun and accuse innocent people of whatever, all the while they're actually committing such real crimes as libel, slander, and defamation of character.

what stank even more is that the same person laughed and joked and smiled with another person who DID say inappropriate things to her - but he was a higher-status male.

Ah, probably a ladder-climber. He'll get his when she's done using him.

This exact same thing happened to a friend of mine. They let one guy f*** mannequins and tell the women how he wanted to do that to them, then if my friend told the same girl she was pretty the boss would come down on him.
