To Mr. Larry Pearson, CEO/Principal - National Kidney Services AKA Carolina
Value Village
As a Military Veteran working as an Employee in the Call Center for National
Kidney Services (NKS), please review my official Complaint I am being Victimized
by my Supervisor Lisa Simpson. Lisa my Boss makes me give her Money, buy
her Cigarettes, Pizza/Fast Food and give Lisa bags of Groceries for her
Family. I am only making a minimum wage of $7.25 and hour working part time
at NKS. And this is something that has created a burden on me, I feel obligated
to Lisa to do this things for Lisa giving me this job, and that otherwise my job
security is and will always be in jeopardy, but I can’t afford to do this.
I need my Job and I need my paycheck, but I am fearful and at Lisa Simpson's
mercy. Lisa knows I struggle and how much money I make. She knows what I
went through with the Veterans Administration (VA) being denied services, that
its been hard on me since my health struggles with several Breast Cancer

 surgeries while being Homeless. I am writing to you for help because I don’t
want to be Homeless again, to lose the roof over my head and my VA HUD
VASH housing.
Lisa Simpson is preying on and heedlessly profiting off of the misfortune of her
workers, creating more hardship for her employee's, and a hostile work
environment. Example: On one occasion while I was working the night Shift,
Lisa asked me to go buy her two packs of Marlboro Cigarettes and had the
"NKS Driver" Paul Jordon take me to buy cigs for Lisa in his privately owned
vehicle. Paul and I went to the Mini Mart to buy Lisa Simpson two packs of
Cigarettes, which I did, Lisa did not give me any money to buy her cigarettes
and has never reimburse me. Mr. Paul Jordon was already punched out and off
the clock at the time, I did not punch out as per Lisa’s instructions and
afterwards returned to my desk to make phone call to customers.
I am fearful an have experienced Lisa’s retaliation, Lisa has also told me and
other NKS employee's that you, the Big Boss, Mr. Larry Pearson, does not like
her or the NKS Call Center Employee’s.
Lisa has continued to created an atmosphere of fear at our NKS Call Center for
employee ’s to fell safe to speak up about our problems, issues and concerns to
Lisa or you. Example: July 12, 2018 - I was told to clock out and go home by my
supervisor Lisa Simpson at a staff meeting for me asking to have my broken
Telephone fixed, I have to use a broken phone with has Static, disconnects, to
call our Customers and for months the phone had needed to be fixed, repaired
or replaced.
Lisa Simpson immediately became upset at me yelling and throwing pens and
pencils across the table asking me to leave the room, then instead, Lisa said
“NO”, to me and ordered me to clock out and go home because I was asking for
the telephone to be repaired so I can effectively do my job calling of our
customers. I lost wages and I was punished just for asking a question about
when was the Telephone I need to do my job was going to be repaired.
Lisa also informed me in a "One on One" unannounced meeting with me on
Tuesday July 17, 2018, ( Lisa also had my fellow employee Tara Williams who
Lisa is a supervisor of, to sit in on my One on One Meeting), and as Lisa stated
that this was "to protect herself from me” Tara was a neutral party for Lisa. Lisa
also stated to me in this meeting that her Boss, Mr. Pearson, agreed with Lisa's
handing of this situation over the broken phone and sending me home without
wages was the right thing to do. As of today the Phone that I use has not been
replaced, fixed or repaired and I continue to be relocated to different offices to
be able to use a working phone to call customers.
Lisa has also on many occasions made racial comments to us in the NKS Call
Center that are offensive. I have witnessed how Lisa has created a fear and is
