https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/sr77r2/pa_employee_me_stuck_in_building/ I work at a fast food restaurant, inside of a walmart. I closed the gate door for closing procedures, did my closing duties, and now as i try to leave the gate door is siezed, it will not open. I have tried, and others on the outside of the door have tried, it is not that i am just too weak, i open and close this door 5x a week. I called my manager and was told i'll be stuck here at least all night long, if not longer if they cant get the door open in the morning. There is no emergency exit in the restaurant, there is inside the walmart but i cant leave the restaurant. No windows either. Am I entitled to wages for all the time stuck in here? Do I have any legal recourse for this? If I had some sort of medical emergency in here, Im not sure what i'd do. I have diagnosed anxiety disorder and this is certainly making it worse. Imagine having a boss so uncaring to you as a person that they tell you to not call 911 because they might damage a fucking door lmao ... Copied to Clipboard!

Dude can totally sue. It's on the manager to make sure that shit works, and to take care of the employees for things outside their level. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ... Copied to Clipboard!

The McDonalds in Walmart near my place has an exit that you can access from inside the store in case of emergency. That McDonalds and Walmart should be fined heavily for their negligence in not providing one in store. Who the fuck decided that A PLACE THAT COOKS FOOD only needed one exit?

Guide posted... Dude can totally sue. It's on the manager to make sure that shit works, and to take care of the employees for things outside their level. And now its documented liability too. They should be glad a real fire or some other emergency didnt happen where that gate closed with everyone evacuated. It would have been a death trap. Im still wondering where this toady mentality of Well sorry, there is nothing I can do. Just sit tight until the morning but also do nothing to help yourself either. Cant have the door being hurt! Like what the fuck. Have some common decency. Even my manager who flamed out of a GM position at a Jamba Juice for being a crack head had my back more than this dude did for a legit trapped employee. --- http://imgur.com/QKdxwuI ...

That McDonalds and Walmart should be fined heavily for their negligence in not providing one in store. Who the fuck decided that A PLACE THAT COOKS FOOD only needed one exit? Fucking idiots. It may not be a McDonald's. Local Walmart has a Subway, and it's designed in such a way that I'm not sure it has an emergency exit either (never looked though). I've also seen similarly designed restaurants in Walmart that I don't remember seeing an Emergency Exit for. Its likely an oversight of building codes, so the Walmart as a whole passes code because it has X amount of emergency exits but the (local) building code doesn't account for gated off parts of the store, or situations like the one in the OP --- The name is wackyteen for a reason.

surely the building code requires some kind of emergency exit in case of fire or something similar. this all sounds pretty suspect --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle ... Copied to Clipboard!

I would definitely be finding a new job if I was told a door is more valuable than me. Maybe the door can work instead. --- http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/NIR_Hockey.png http://www.last.fm/user/hockeybub89/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

That's really shitty, if that were me I'd be praying that they fired me. Having a slam dunk case backed up by the fire chief against 2 mega corps(I'm assuming it's a McDonald's he's talking about), you'll get a fat settlement on that. Really the person should sue anyway. ... Copied to Clipboard!
