Walmart Madness #94! Pregnant Worker Fired For Drinking Water

<--- What a prego may look like.  (that one is quads)  :)

In 2007 the 18-year-old Walmart employee was fired from her job, stocking shelves in the infants department, for drinking from a water bottle.

 According to her worker orientation meeting, as noted by the Washington Post, employees were allowed to drink on the job so long as it is only water.



Her supervisor, however, changed the rules and said she needed a doctor’s note in order to hydrate, even when she was visibly pregnant.

Myers reportedly thought it was, “silly to need a note for that,” but still went and brought a doctor’s note anyway. However, her supervisor changed the rules again and told her drinking fountains were enough. By now, however, Myers had a urinary tract infection (common during pregnancy) and needed to hydrate more regularly. She was given a choice: either the water goes or you do. Myers left and sued.
