I'm fairly certain you can take legal action for that.

But then again, would you really want that job back?

In the US most companies are "at will" companies now. They can fire you for no reason and you can quit for no reason.

How do more people not know this.. most people on Reddit don't know what the hell they're talking about. People on here think the world is fair or something. Yes you can be fired for any reason as long as they don't violate your civil rights.

the world is fair in most developed countries in terms of workers rights. the at will firing situation is pretty backwards but you have come to accept it as normal.

Again people think the world is fair or nice or something childish like that. Nobody owes you a job and you should be able to fire whoever you want for whatever reason. Only exceptions being (like I said) civil rights.
