Disrespecting military Vets

On November, 11, 2013
Applebee's restaurant will be giving away free meals to veterans (Active & former) as a thank you for serving our country.
While this is certainly a thank you to are heroes, Applebees has many military veterans working on their staff who are not appreciated.
On this day (11/11/12), all employees who are veterans are going to be scheduled to work a double shift, reguardless if they are scheduled to work that day or not.
Because of this,
I have decided to resign my position as a Chef / cook. I served 4 years in the United States NAVY, and also I'am a full-time college student (16 credits).
My normal days off are Monday thru Wednesday, because I made it known of my schedule before ever accepting the job offer.
Last week I was informed by management that I have to work reguardless of any agreement or college classes.
I have e-mailed Applebee's corporate offices 3 times & have not received a response. Also, I'am a member of my college Veterans club, for students who have a military background.
Applebee's has failed in its effort to assist Veterans & the disrespect to its Veteran employees needs to be addressed.
