In California, an 'At Will' state, they can fire you, at any moment, for any reason (other than the protected ones: Race, Colour, Religion, Creed, National Origin, Sexual Orientation, etc.) But if you show up in a blue tie, and boss doesn't like blue ties, they can fire you for that. Depending on your the nature job, they might not have to give you 2 week pay either. But that depends on the situation. |
Well it's not like this is completely foreign in the US either.
It's pretty common in Union based jobs.
For example, the Education System's "Rubber Rooms".
