Legal Question in Business Law in Florida

Holiday pay

I had gotten written up at my work on a

Thursday for texting. As a result I was

forced to not come to work on Friday, and

was forced to forfeit my holiday pay for

memorial day on Monday. Is this legal?

That's about $100 ill be missing on my

paycheck. Is this legal?
