I live in an at will state.
I once got fired when I couldnt remember which toolbox i got a wrench from in a large warehouse lol.
Honestly that's legal grounds to mail them human feces in a package carefully designed to leak once it gets into their mail pile.
I was under a guy who managed the warehouse by himself for like 15 years and he could not conceptualize someone who didnt understand it as well as he did. The wrench was the final thing, but the guy had some weirdo problems with people.
I was also fired after i toom a 3 week long vacation in Vegas in feb 2020. Covid had not quite hit yet but it was clearly building. I returned and my job called me the day before i was to come back to work and simply told me not to bother. I was never given a reason.
At will states are pretty fucked up. Employers can turn your shit upside down on a whim.
Yes officer, this comment right there
