The reason I believe that this happen to me because I was informed by the highest in charge over one before Keith hosking that I was rehireable after he left the store and it was not going against me that he did not put anything in the computer that would make not rehireable my father was there because we both from this store all the time and I believe the manager over that department I worked in before at the deli Megan was ear listening to me talking then informed the new comers of it I believe that this was discrimination and I was lied to and other factors played along I was told by the new store manager that she would call me back and she acted like she did not know and then another manager jumps in and tells me that I’m not rehire able which means they did something in the computer to change stuff around I was never informed and also to find out on 01-26-2023 I was just informed someone said I made comments and other things but they kept it away I did not say it and everything

In California, dealing with workplace issues like favoritism or being unfairly marked as non-rehireable can be challenging, but there are steps you can take to address the situation. First, it's essential to document all interactions related to your employment status, including conversations with management and supervisors, to have a clear record of what was communicated to you.
If you believe you've been unfairly treated or discriminated against, you may want to start by addressing the issue directly with the store's human resources department. They are typically responsible for handling such matters and can investigate your claims of unfair treatment or miscommunication regarding your rehire status. Be clear and concise about your concerns and the outcome you're seeking.
Should the response from HR not resolve the issue to your satisfaction, you might consider seeking external advice. This could involve contacting a local labor rights organization for guidance or consulting with an attorney who specializes in employment law. While pursuing legal action is a significant step, understanding your rights and the feasibility of your case is crucial. Remember, California law provides protections against unfair labor practices, and exploring your options can help ensure your concerns are appropriately addressed.
