Re: is it illegal to because of illness?
since they knew of the 'illness' and hired you anyway, to have a case you would have to prove that they illegally failed to accommodate a known disability that you had requested accommodation on. Missing work for medical or other reason is grounds for firing in an 'at will' state like California, especially during probation. If you think you can prove illegality, contact me to discuss the evidence.
If time clock issues mean they owe you money, you have a wage claim you could bring at the Labor Commissioner.
