Milton Friedman once said that managers are solely responsible for making a profit for their shareholders and should not consider the wider ethical implications of their actions other than keeping within the law. Can anyone think of any writers or influential people or companies who agree with this statement?

Thanks!

This week I was asked to leave the company. I was serving a 3 month probational period and just covered 2. I was aware that during the period it was far to be fired, than if I hadn't served it. however, one of the document given and signed by me stated that something like; during my probational period I must give one weeks notice to leave, or must b egiven one weeks notice if asked to leave. aftwer which this comes to 1 (or maybe 3) months.
My point here is: is having been asked to leave that very second after my meeting a breach of contract, or if not a 'breach' - was this action done the wrong way? is this the correct way (does it deopend on company policy)?
what options could i take now regarding the issue?

p.s. i was fired for being late more than once during probation.

I had a 401K with a company I worked for from 2001 to 2002. I left that job due to an injury which later I had to sue the company for my workmans comp money. It was a miserable situation which directly caused me to loose my home, vehicle and everything else I had owned. As for my 401K, could anyone tell me where this money that I put into it went? I never received any notification regarding my contribution. I actually never even thought about it until recently. Did I just lose that money? Thanks for your help.
