Employer's Right to Abruptly Fire Employee

Comment and question from Martyvand posted in response to the resource on "Top 10 Nightmare Bosses." The silent type boss - basically says nothing to you; excludes you from important communication; then one day just decides to fire you. These companies work on an "at will" basis. Do they really get to treat you as they will after devoting your efforts to them and planning life around a job you expect to have?

I suggest you look at the material in "Not Respecting Legal Rights" under "Common Boss Bad Behaviors" on the home page. Also, the following items on the site are relevant:
"How To Beat The Boss"
"Can You Be Fired For No Reason At All?"
"Strategies To Deal With Unjust Firing"
"Employment Termination"
(To find these items quickly, just type the title into the search box at the top right of each page.)

Oregon is an "At will" state (I think WA too). Even so, my company usually gives people a million chances (to our detriment) before they fire any one.
On the opposite side of the coin, being in an "at will" state means you can also quit on the spur of the moment, without giving notice.
