Not only are there no laws against poor management, 'unfair treatment', or rude and obnoxious behavior, but in general unless an employee is civil service, in a union, or has a written employment contract, they are an 'at will' employee that can be disciplined or fired any time for any reason, with or without �cause�, explanation or notice. You can try to complain to your HR that you had approval. If that works, great. If it doesn't, look for a new job and apply for unemployment.
