Was accused of internal theft and not sure if corporate will follow through with civil suit?

I got hired at a retail company on Feb 02/06/23. I was a sales associate/cashier. This is my first cashier job. I was confronted on 03/29/23 by loss prevention. They brought me into a room and started interrogating me about a bunch of items that have gone off to customers because I forgot to scan them. I immediately felt disappointed in myself because I did not know that I was doing such a bad job. It started getting weird when loss prevention claimed that they have been watching me on camera since February. So they’ve been watching me mess up but not telling me? The whole time I worked there, managers have been showing me that I have bad scores on my time. I knew I was kind of slow and I needed to improve on my speed. I explained to him that I’ve been tryna improve on that and…

Some quotes from a former manager

This seems like the perfect place to let out some frustration I've been carrying over these years. For some context, I was a contractor and had a great relationship with the project lead before they left due to low wage. It took 6 months to find a replacement who would take the wage, and when we did… “You need to plan your medical emergencies around your work schedule.” “Yes, if someone on my team calls in and says they need to work from home that day because they feel sick, I have a problem with that.” “Please deduct your bathroom visits from your timesheet.” “No, your contract doesn't say you have to work in the office. But it's at the project manager's discretion.” (Department-Wide Email) “The team lost a day of productivity today because you decided to take a day off over unfounded bedbug rumors. You may be surprised to…

Got unfairly fired for ableist reasons at a small business

I want to preface this by saying 1. I am autistic. I struggle with tone and facial expressions. I am often mistaken as being disinterested. 2. I have a much better job now that pays literally so much more with much better advancement opportunities. I also live in a at-will employment state, so the possibility of suing is basically out the window. So, about a year ago, I was looking for a new job and applied to this local escape room in my town. I thought it'd be a fun job, and I'd be good at it. Without giving away too much personal identifiable information, I will say I have relevant experience in this field. I applied, they got back to me, interviewed me, hired me, but then wanted to do a 'working audition.' Which, in the owner's words means “We want to see if you'll fit into our family.”…
