Linda was employed with General Mills in Minnesota for over three years. She was a highly productive employee and was known as the star performer on her team. Due to the economic recession the company had to lay off a large number of employees, and she was one of the employees who was asked to leave without being provided good cause or an explanation. In this scenario, Linda is protected under Section 3(a) of META which says that an:
 A) employee can be fired without any reason.
 B) employee may not be terminated without good cause.
 C) employee can be terminated in financial crises.
 D) employee may not be terminated with good cause.

Question 2

Brett (defendant) entered into employment contract with Krista (plaintiff). Brett had hired Krista as a staff assistant at a pay rate of 20 per hour. Krista's duties consisted of driving trucks and making deliveries. Although Krista worked for 120 hours in total, she was paid only for part of her services which did not abide by the terms and conditions agreed in the employment contract. Krista has most likely instituted a suit against Brett for:
 A) breach of trust.
 B) breach of contract.
 C) gender discrimination.
 D) wrongful discharge.
