Walmart Strikes: Lone Worker Walks Out, Receives Trespass Warning Ahead Of Black Friday

Posted: Updated:

ST. CLOUD, FL. - There was an employee walkout at a Walmart Supercenter in St. Cloud, Fla., on Wednesday morning.

The walkout included just one worker -- Vanessa Ferreira, age 59. Ferreira informed her manager publicly Wednesday morning that she was going on strike. The other employees watched her walk out of the store, then went back to doing their jobs.

Within a half hour, Ferreira would be told by police outside that she was trespassing and ordered to leave. She's worked in the store's cake department for eight years, and she earns $11.90 an hour, she said.

"I love to decorate cakes," Ferreira said Wednesday. "That's my priority -- to do my cakes the best I can."

The store manager is not commenting.
