You can be fired for almost anything.
They just may have to pay unemployment.
They did have to pay unemployment, but they tried really hard to discourage me from seeking it, saying I likely wasn’t even eligible for it and not to even bother filing.
There are still limits, even in at will and right to work states there are some protections.
Revoking approved time off after it’s already started is definitely a valid reason for a wrongful termination lawsuit. Especially if you have evidence of previous bullshit.
That’s why you should always get everything that seems even remotely bullshit in writing, and have your own backups.
Any time someone is terminated without cause, the employer simply doesn’t provide a reason for termination. They’re not required to.
You can’t be fired for unlawful reasons. Being fired for taking an agreed upon vacation is illegal retaliation.
Sounds like you haven’t been in the American work force.
They can fire you for any reason. Or no reason. Nothing matters because if you’re a wage slave nobody cares.
Plus they probably made you sign a waiver to work there saying that you couldn’t ever sue them for any reason.
Yeah, but it can’t be in direct retalliation, it must be based on work performance. Normally the former is hard to prove, but sometimes it’s obvious.
