What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New jersey
I was given a vacation for Valentine's day by my fiancee. I work in a restaurant as a waitress and the vacation happens to begin on the day before mother's day. I informed my boss the next day, Feb 15th, telling her that I was given a vacation but would not be able to work on Mother's day because I would be on vacation. I do not get paid vacations and everyone who takes a vacation does so with that knowledge. She told me that if I did not work on that day, she would fire me. I am one of her top workers , filling in for others and even work on my days off if she needs me. Can she legally fire me?
