I got a job about a week ago. However, yesterday I was called and fired because I am under 18, even though they already hired me, and I had already worked there a week. I did not withhold information, and I made them well aware of my age specifically to prevent this from happening. I am a junior in college, but I am only 17, so it is difficult for me to find a job in Chicago. Is it unlawful for this company to let me go, and if so, what are the laws regarding this issue? Thanks!
