california, I was fired for insubordination and not following instruction which I believe is false. basically stem from an argument with my supervisor, he wanted me to perform testing on a car that we never found any problems with before and it came back for same concern. since I performed test last vist and no problem found I did not get paid by manufacturer warranty. I let him know that and wanted assurnace the dealership would pay me to perform further test on the car this time, he said NO to my request for assurance pay. yet I never refused to perform the test (and eventually work on the car for free next 2 day then got fired) just want to make I got paid, he believed I was being insubordinate and I got fired. should I get a lawyer, from what I researched it not worth it since I am at will and they can fire me for any reason any time ( have been written up before small stuff, counseled about attitude cause I was overheard talking bad about a new rule implemation). I submit a unemployment claim and expect to go appeal, I believe I would win since they really have no real proof of gross misconduct. I plan to submit a letter to the car dealership owner and operation manager, should I also ask for district hr manger also? any help is greatly appreciated, every mechanic knows this boss is an idiot (1st time in position). thanks any help
