    I assume you don't have a labor contract.

    I also assume you are in the USA.

    Were they notified BEFORE your start time each day by you?

    I think there is more to this than you have mentioned... maybe because you didn't think it was important.

    They can do a lot of things... including deciding they don't need you at all... but they rarely do that out of the blue without a reason.

    Yes they can do it, normally you will see it coming from talks about your absence.
