At my last job they attempted to fire me 3 times. Once last year and 2 times in the past month. What it really comes down to is that when they dont have a reason and you sit down and talk to them about why they are firing you they get really backed into a corner. This last time I finally had enough and told the new manager he was full of **** with his reasons (he totally pulled them out of his ass) and that he just has a problem with me and to admit it. They dont like it too much when you speak the truth calmly. They start to panic....

If I was you I'd go in and ask them for a written report on the grounds in which you were fired (if they dont call it "being laid off"). Tell them your going to review their testimony and consult some former fellow employees on "performance" of your work and whatever reasons they give you for your dismissal.

Calmly tell them that if they are not willing to comply with unemployment and their grounds for your termination are false you will be seeking legal action. Chances are you'll scare them half to death with formality and kindness. At least enough that when those unemployment papers land on their desk they wont check the box that says "Terminated for inadequate work".

Good luck dude, and that reminds me I still need to call the upper management at my former job.
