Legal Question in Business Law in Utah

Laid-off
I had started working for a small restraunt business about two weeks ago. I went into work and was told that the needed to let me go because the were not making enough money and were over employed. They told me I did a great job and if they needed another employee, I would be the first to be contacted. They said that it was nothing that I did and that it was just because I was the last one hired. They said that they would lay-off others as well. That SAME night a close friend of mine was offered a job for the same position and no one else has been fired in the last 2 business days. I was lied to and given absolutley no reason for my firing. What can I do? Are there any leagal laws broken? I will be meeting with the managers tomorrow afternoon for my final pay check and hopefully an explanation.

The only thing you can do is file for unemployment compensation. There is no violation of law.
