Comments on: Can I Be Fired Based On Insufficient Evidence? http://nxus.net/can-i-be-fired-based-on-insufficient-evidence.html Solution to your Niche Question Sat, 15 Oct 2011 00:02:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Joy http://nxus.net/can-i-be-fired-based-on-insufficient-evidence.html/comment-page-1#comment-3483 Joy Fri, 20 Nov 2009 00:23:08 +0000 http://nxus.net/can-i-be-fired-based-on-insufficient-evidence.html#comment-3483 You can be fired for any reason or no reason at all, right now I would be concerned mainly on the security clearance. Here is what you need to do. First, call them and see if they will set up a meeting with you. If they will, you need to let them know that you indeed are innocent and that they can let you go, but they had better reconsider the reason because if they give harmful false accusations you will be forced to acquire the help of a lawyer. If you mention lawyer to them, and mean it, mention it in a mature serious manner, then they should reconsider. If they refuse to meet with you then you need to contact a lawyer and let him contact them. I really doubt they want a lawsuit over something like this, let them take your job away, sounds like it is not a good place to be with the distrust they have in you anyway, but don't let them take away your future with the false accusations. Good for you for standing up for yourself!! You can be fired for any reason or no reason at all, right now I would be concerned mainly on the security clearance. Here is what you need to do.

They do not have suffecient evidence to fire you for this based on your letter. The tape is the catch on this on but they cannot deny what is in the log book which is standard policy for out of the ordinary circumstances. I would contact an attorney for a free consult.

"perception is reality" what you did is perceived as wrong. you do not have grounds for any law suit, contact an attorney if you feel the need but don't be surprised when they decline to represent you. you are employed "at-will" you can be terminated for any reason or no reason at all (except illegal reasons such as discrimination).
