    I completely agree with the first comment by zZz. It probably would have been much better for your case to have gone in and be thought a trooper for battling through the illness and get sent home. Employers always prefer actions to excuses.

    I also agree with SlapHappy. Contracts are not binding if the job requirements are not fulfilled. If your job depends on your voice, then if your voice is non-existent, then you don't really have a leg to stand on.... so to speak.

    AND, to reiterate several people's points, if you were under the 3 month mark, then employers are able to let you go with very little (or even without) explanation at all. From the sounds of it, you got an explanation (since you mentioned a "voice" thing)... it would seem you just didn't like what the explanation was.
