Legal Question in Employment Law in Mississippi
I work for a temp service. They put me to work at a factory and i sent an email that to me sounded like i was asking for help on productivity and how to improve my work that is until i reread it and it sounds like i am propositioning the factory for business. The temp service got ahold of the email and told me not to report to work today and that they would call me before the day was out. I haven't heard back from them yet. So I'm wondering. Can i get fired because of this or do you think i should sue them for terminating me over this nonsense?

In Mississippi you can get fired for any reason, as long as the reason is not illegal. As you describe the facts, it does not appear you will be terminated for an illegal reason. You may have an unemployment claim if you get terminated.
