This is disgraceful. Many of you may or may not know, but it is against the law to not give a person their job back if they are called up to active duty as a soldier. Well some soldiers are finding it difficult to come back to their civilian life and their employers are trying to make life hard for them.
What a lot of employers don't seem to realize, is that soldiers make some of the best employees. Generally speaking, they are responsible, work well in groups, and take orders perfectly. To deny them their old jobs when they return is an act of cowardice. What I really want to know is, which companies are doing it? I have my own personal convictions about things and to this day, I won't shop at Lowe's over the treatment a friend of mine got over an $11 purchase. That includes when I had my house being built 2 years ago and I needed appliances and misc. parts. I simply went to Home Depot instead and ended up spending around $8,000 on various things.
I know that Lowe's had some of my things slightly cheaper, but Home Depot gave me price matching and treated me with respect. I shop more at Sears because of this story.
It's not a good idea to piss people off.
