Unless this action violated the terms of a union agreement or employment contract, you have no claim here. The fact is that most employment arrangments are "at will". This means that a company can set the conditions of employment much as it sees fit (absent some form of legally actionable discrimination). Accordingly, an employee can be fired for any reason or no reason, with or without notic.
