    did they say why

    with unemployment benefits I think it varies by state but in CA you have to be "unemployed through no fault of your own", like laid off due to company downsizing or something...if you get canned for stealing or poor performance, constantly coming in late, etc you won't qualify

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Pretty sure Texas is right to work, they don't have to have any reasons and can fire you whenever they please

    I thought "At Will" states were the ones that could fire you for any reason? Right to work I thought had something to do with unions, like being able to work in a unionized environment without being a part of the union.

    Surprisingly CA is an at-will work state and technically an employer can fire anyone without consequence. But from what I've seen lately there can definitely be consequence lol.

    He wrecked his manual Camry (well someone rear ended it)
    The sienna shares the same subframe.
