Unless you work at a funeral home, I really don't see anything wrong with being happy

You should sue them that's not a reason you can legally fire someone.

Well, sometimes it's really not suitable. Probably somewhere deep in your soul you know when you did something that freaked them out. Don't you?

Since we're only getting OP's side of the story, I can't help but suspect that they were doing something that was actually annoying/creepy. People tend not to recognize their own behaviors that are off-putting to other people.
