Not that I disagree with your premise, but that's an "at will" law area, not "right to work" (can't be forced to join a union/pay union dues in a unionized workplace).
To add, some argue at will is fair because it goes both ways, but it definitely doesn't. If your employer fires you suddenly for no reason, there's no real consequences. If you quit suddenly for no reason, you can get blackballed.
Yeah I knew it wasn't the right wording I just couldn't remember exactly what it was called.
But that's exactly what I was bringing up. I'm supposed to work a 2 week notice but they can fire me instantly because I didn't smile at the manager when walking into work.
Depends on the industry and location. If they do that a few times in relatively small industry, or in a captured but small market, word gets around and suddenly that company has difficulty hiring in the future.
That's true. I work in a somewhat "small" work world for my area of expertise, and word does get around about bad employers. People seem to have a short memory once they start offering higher salaries, even though they never keep those up with inflation. A few years later, and they're working for a shit boss with average pay.
