Inappropriate body language.

That was the official reason. No examples given, and since I was fired for cause, unemployment confirmed that was the reason and I was granted unemployment. I live in a work at will state, so they don’t need to give a reason. Obviously I worked for a shady company. After a couple years, “inappropriate body language” is the punch line to lots of jokes.

I got fired from my internship 2 years ago. They said they couldn’t keep additional people in my department due to downsizing and walked me out the door

This is layoff not fired.
