Dude, you skipped out on work. How could you be pissed at them.
And why do they have to tell you that your job is in jeopardy? You skipped out on work. I would think that common sense would tell you that that's a job-jeopardizing thing to do. If you worked for me, e-mail or not, you'd come in to find your last paycheck on the time clock, inbox, or whereever. That'd be the only notice you got that your job was in jeopardy.
It doesn't matter if you had worked for an employer for 20 years. You skip out on work (and emailing doesn't cut it) you're gonna get fired. That's just the way it works.
Life Lesson #1 -- You are not unique, and are easily replaced.
EDIT -- And, yes, I have worked on campus. Worked for the university all 4 years I was there in a variety of jobs.
