It could be the result of a personality conflict. And people sometimes are terminated with or without reason and for any reason under those "at will" or "90 day rule" clauses.

Sadly, other people still judge you even if it were not your fault at all.
This is what happened to me. I was terminated involuntarily. I didn't do anything wrong, it's just that my boss felt like I wasn't a good fit for the job. It didn't take the sting out of being fired though. But it was for the best. I really didn't like that job anyway.

Anyway, sorry that happened to you. PM if you want to talk. Did you apply for unemployment yet?
