Do you work/live in an "At Will" state?

I contract for my company, so I am essentially an "at will" employee. I think that this system often works much better than permanent hire, because employees are held immediately accountable for their actions. I have to respect the rules and expectations of my manager, and perform to my best abilities, or I could possibly face termination. With some permanent positions, it can be very difficult to get rid of someone who is not performing, because there is a lot of documentation and jumping through hoops that needs to be done to provide evidence of their poor behavior. It shouldn't take that much work to prove someone's not doing their job! "At will" also allows me to leave at any time, without having a system to follow as well. That could be very helpful if I were in a situation where I didn't mesh with the company atmosphere or the management. Overall, I like "at will" employment. I have had positive experiences in the past, and am in a good situation right now, so I can't complain. I could see where sometimes "at will" scenarios could be abused, but I've seen and heard of VERY few experiences where that is the case.
