Legal Question in Employment Law in California

I was scheduled to go on a vacation on 7/15/09 that was approved by my Senior Regional Manager on 4/01/09. I was "asked" by my Senior Regional Manager to attend a meeting on 7/17/09 with my Vice-President and our client. I informed my Senior Regional Manager that I had paid a non-refundable down payment for my vacation, as well as the vacation being out of state, and that I could not attend. When I returned from vacation I was not allowed on the property and then was notified I was suspended for a week with no explanation and directed not to contact anyone from my company, including HR. I was terminated on 7/31/09 by my Vice-President with the statement "I really can not go into details". I still have not received any official paperwork from the company and I have not signed any paperwork. What can I do?

File for unemployment and seek a new job. You were an 'at will' employee, and could thus be fired any time for any reason, unless in a union or you had a written employment contract.
