You betcha! Ready to get screwed by the man? I do find it interesting that you back-dated this question though...

NC is an "at will" state. Basically meaning that your employer can fire you if you don't do what they say, at will. Or you can quit, at will. Sucks, but it's legal.

- I understand that NC is an "at will".... just do understand how it can be legal for an employer to cut someones pay by 50% and get away with it. Everyone working for the agency is getting a pay cut but I highly doubt anyone's pay was cut as much as mine... mainly because they seemed to be ok after their individual meeting with HR. I doesn't matter if I leave or if I staff cause either way I risk losing all that I have. Thanks for the input though!

You can refuse to have your pay cut and make them fire you so you can get unemployment at the higher rate. Also you need to talk to US Department of Labor in Raliegh and the NC Department of Labor. Make sure you talk to them both.
