I thought "at will" had to do with firing/quitting. An employer can terminate your employment without reason as long as they don't say something like it's because you're female, black, too old, or one of the other protected classes. On the other side of the coin, you have the right to quit for no reason without notice.
I wouldn't think it would be right to dock his pay for not doing the chore, though. Maybe right him up for lack of attention to job responsibilities or something. Does she own the cafe? Do you have the paperwork proving the hours you worked and the check stub showing the lack of pay for the hours you worked? Can you go above her head? If not, even though I don't think it's right, I think you're just screwed.
