Interactive’s officers repeatedly told Abdullah that he would have his job as long as his performance was adequate. In addition, Interactive distributed an employee handbook that specified “termination guidelines,” including a mandatory seven-step pre-termination procedure. Two years later, abdullah learned that his recently hired supervisor, Nargis, was under investigation by the FBI for embezzlement at his previous job. Abdullah reported this to Interactive officers. Shortly thereafter, Interactive fired Abdullah. He sued, claiming that Interactive could fire him only for good cause, after the seven-step procedure.
