Yes. But they'll have to pay you for the time you already worked within a short time.

Yes. In general, unless an employee is civil service, in a union, or has a written employment contract, they are an 'at will' employee that can be disciplined or fired any time for any reason, with or without �cause�, explanation or notice. You are only entitled to be paid for the time you work. .
