If you could prove that the person should have never been put on the initial corrective action? I am guessing you couldn't do anything there because I signed the papers? But I was told that signing those doesn't mean that you agree with them, simply that someone went over them with you.

An employer can simply state that your services are no longer needed and either escort you off the premises or otherwise dismiss you. "At will" refers to both hiring and firing and a company must adhere to its own internal termination procedures in order to pursue a successful wrongful termination suit. As I said, it could be difficult to prevail. Have you talked to your labor board about your circumstances?
