Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Question about Employer

I was working at the bank as a teller, and I was terminated with the reason is ''careless about handle cash''. The problem is I did not make any mistake ( not out of balance ), and I did not receive any warning from the bank.

The week before I got fire, the bank lost $2,000.00 and we could not find what the reason for it or who stole the money. That is why I believe they tried to fire me for cut down the $2000.00 which is lost with no reason. Is it legally for employer when they can fire any employee without warning? Please help me out with this question.

Re: Question about Employer

If you suspect the bank fired you as a pretext for something else -- such as national origin or gender discrimination -- then you have certain remedies. Otherwise, you might be out of luck. Employment generally is at will, which means a person may be fired for no reason or any reason, except illegal reasons, and can quit at any time.
