A: No, you probably don't have a case. Most employment is "at will", which means your employer doesn't need a reason to fire you.
A: Hard to tell but if your being treated differently than other employees, maybe it is worth speaking to an attorney. Generally speaking, you have a case if discrimination is involved in the work place. Explore the facts by calling and speaking with an attorney.
