Re: I got fired from my job

Florida is an "employment at will" state, meaning your employer can fire you any time for no reason, unless it it based on illegal discrimination or whistleblowing. Seek a consult with an employment attorney to determine if you fit into any of these categories. Also, apply for unemployment compensation asap.
