[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the OP.  Thanks for the replies.  Is it normal for the supervisor to refuse to tell her why she was fired?  [/quote]

If you tell them why, then that opens it up for debate and lawsuits.

How long had she been there? In many states, even a "protected class" can be fired in the first X months for no reason at all.[/quote]
A person who is a member of a protected class can be fired.  [b]The REASON for the firing cannot be the protected class status, no matter when it happens[/b].[/quote]

True, But everyone is in a protected class, really. We all have a race and a gender.. However, if she’s a minority, the comment “the face doesn’t fit” would be fodder for concern.[/quote][b]

[/b]If she is a woman, which she is, the comment "the face doesn't fit" is cause for concern.

[/quote]

she was having problems with two older women, so not sure about that.  They were kept on, so doesn't seem like any animus toward women.[/quote]
