I was hired 3 weeks ago by a recruiter from Boston.  I live in Georgia.  Then I was called by a supervisor who does not live in this state, yet she hired me.   This second lady asked if I would like to be a reset merchandiser for Walgreen drug stores up in Canton, Ga. 15 minutes drive away, and I said yes to this offer.  I gave written notice of resignation to my secure part time job.

I began to recieve e-mails stating what new hire paper work I must fill out, including an I-9 form that after I printed out the form,  I had to drive an hour to have filled out by a member of thier company, at one of their offices.  Then the drug test was  performed in town.

A week  later I contacted the  recruiter in Boston as only contact information I had for anyone, and let her know I did all the paper work- when could I begin work ?  Then my to be immediate supervisor e-mailed me  a few days later, welcomed me to the team and   instead of work assignment, I received training to do on the comupter that included not only Walgreens, but Wal-Mart, Target, and Best Buy. 

In order to perform the training, which was not stated at time of hire, a person needs Silver Light on thier computer, and  a smart phone for photos.  I went out and purchased each,  When I had a question I called the supervisor, e-mailed and text him, all to no reply.  Then I contacted his boss, the lady who had hired me over the phone and she made him call me. 

The following week  I started to receive options for work assignments for hanging coupons at Publix grocery stores.  The assignment stated "mailing".  I contacted supervisor to ask what was a mailing.  He did not reply so after 3 days I went to Publix and they did not know what a mailing was either.  Finaly my supervisor e-mailed me that a mailing would come by Fed Ex to my apt. 

The work assignments were for 45 min. and or 30 min. and one or two were for an hour, but the locations were all points N, S, E, and W of my town, anywhere from 5 to 50 miles away.  I selected a few locations, and the next eve someone had automaticaly scheduled me several more stores - farthest away from my town. 

Fed Ex never arrived the day or eve before my scheduled work assignment, so I called, e-mailed and text supervisor who hours later responded he would look into this.  And this was after I had received an e-mail of tracking from Fred Ex.  The supervisor never called me back that eve.    I quit a couple hours later as I was told $10.50 hour to start, but if only 30 min it would be $5.25 for the assignment and so on. 

Then the supervisor closed me out of all programs within the hour, denyed me access to the survey I had been sent for the 45 day employment , yet I hadn't been hired but a couple weeks, I was like invisable to the company.   The following morning at 9am Fed Ex was knocking on my door and I refused the mailing.

Now I seek a part time job with a reputable company.

Sporadically, a new ASM "Recruiter" contacts me. The names are new but the concept is the same.   Jumping thru hoops and have zero work to offer.
