I recently had an incident with a motel franchise owned by foreigners. I was hired for minimum wage and then told that I would not receive a wage during training hours. Then I didn't even find out untill two days later. That third day was rough with hurricane weather and I sure wasn't going to risk anything by driving to work for free. I did call however and asked for more than minimum wage with not anymore unpaid hours. I was never called back like my higher than average buisiness/motel skills were worthless or like my education in Computers, Communication Skills, Human Relations, Keyboarding, and Office Procedures didn't increase my value Not to mention the year I spent working for a larger motel as night auditor who was able to able to operate their current system easily because of previous experience. I feel like I am over qualified, but in the Patel's eyes I was just a woman who didn't even deserve anything for my time but an oppurtunity to work for those who descriminate against the female population with there determination to dominate with no sense of understanding. So I wrote a nice letter to communicate with them my point of view and why I was worth $7 an hour.
I called and they refussed to admit that they received my letter and didn't have any reason to be talking to them. I tried to explain why, but when I mentioned that it was illegal to withhold wages they said, " We no hire you. You talk like that. I don't care. You tell. Its okay!"
After being treated like this I was upset because I worked so hard to get nothing but a crushed spirit from someone who should be humble and be more considerate of the real people born in the USA. He's too good to be an American who doesn't recieve special treatment from the government.
