Can you still be an assistant manager if you are charged with a felony?
Asked by Diamond Princess 313rd
a friend of mine is an assistant manager at walgreens. he has never been in any kind of trouble but he made a mistake and is about to be charged with carrying a conceiled weapon. is it possible that he will lose his job over this?

Best Answer:
He could. It depends on the company policy. I'm not sure if he should fess up now or wait to see if the company finds out. It all depends on the corporate atmosphere I guess. Personally, I'd have to be honest. Not only because I am, but because if I didn't disclose that then I could be immediately terminated. Good luck to your friend.

Walgreen's is a very stuffy company, and doesn't look favorably upon people carrying firearms, even legally. Don't be surprised to find your friend flipping burgers at Mickey D's.

Probably not. I know an assistant manager that got put in Jail for DWI and they didnt fire him, Now he is a Co-manager. but this was at Walmart. Guess it just depends on the store and management there. It would probably be best if he told the managment team there and not But I feel if he is open and honest with them then it should go over well. Anyone else with a simular reason? What was his intention for carring it will be the result in it.
