As has been shown, that's just not true. If you are hired at will you can be fired at will. In all states. See the links defining At Will employment and the specific states (a handful) that have certain exemptions.
You CAN fire an employee for one call out, or most anything else at right to work states, but you'll be bleeding out the nose in unemployment costs. Most organized, large companies won't allow management to fire unless it's done in a way to avoid unemployment. Hence, my "can't" remark.
