On paper, she wasn't fired for calling in sick, she was fired for failing to disclose something before being hired that would interfere with her ability to do the job. A more extreme example would be someone interviewing for a job driving not disclosing they didn't have a driver's license.
(The reality could be that simple, or it could be, as the article speculates, an excuse to get rid of an employee that somebody didn't like for other reasons that weren't cause.)
Mostly, these make sense to me. The more nonesensical sounding ones, I would guess, are about controlling employee theft. Several are "don't bring stuff in that we sell." In my experience, employers who have that much trouble with employee theft treat their employees very poorly. People who like their jobs don't steal from them.
