In the US, almost all employment is at-will. There&#x27;s no probationary period and any one can be let go at any time without notice for any reason (or no reason) except for a certain list of protected things (gender, race, marital status, and the like).<p>Also, from the description, it seems like the conversation was way more than just &quot;would you like to get a drink&quot; and the guy already didn&#x27;t back down.
