Re: Wrongful Firing?
Yes, unless they are singling you out for a relocation based on your age as a way to dismiss you. They can fire you for any reason whatsoever at any time, no matter how good an employee you have been. They don't need the reason, but if you refuse to accept the transfer, you can certainly be fired.
