    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.

        Not telling someone why you are firing them isn’t a magical lawsuit avoidance option. In a wrongful termination lawsuit, the courts take context into account specifically because of shitty companies/managers trying to hide behind exactly that.

        Just because they don’t give the reason doesn’t mean the reason can’t be proven.
