You can in Nebraska. Hire and fire at will. They don't have to tell you anything except "pack up your shit and get out". That's the way it should be, IMO.

So MY lawyer helped me prove that I myself was wrongfully terminated, despite being in an "at will" state. That was over a year ago and my former company is still paying me for it. If I was like that I could have sued and won. And I didn't even get fired for my looks....now think about how bad it would've been for them if they'd have fired someone who actually wants to sue for their looks? Like I said, at will is largely bullshit.

If you don't mind me asking, how was it wrongful termination? What law did they break?

That doesn't mean they aren't liable however. Its legal for me to shoot an intruder in Texas, but if I don't kill him he's going to sue me and I'm going to lose.

not anymore, they fixed that loophole, though a dead thief is better then a live one.
