YSK in the US, “At-will employment” is misconstrued by employers to mean they can fire you for any reason or no reason. This is false and all employees have legal protections against retaliatory firings.

Earlier this year I got a part job working remotely. The job consist mostly of receiving 4 different types of documents via email (sometimes pictures, scanned or pdfs) and I have to take information from those, put it into an excel sheet and reply to the email with a “confirmation of receipt”. It's super boring. Few weeks after I started, I made a bot that does all this work for me, without supervision. The bot even knows when it should start and stop working based on the roaster I receive my email each week. Yesterday, I got an email praising “my” work and how I was the fastest worker on the team lol. Got a promotion.
