getting fired end of month- tips for milking it?

Title is pretty self-explanatory, but thought I'd throw in some context. My shit manager mentioned back in March that I wasn't the best suited for the position (this is putting it lightly btw, as he was a bit harsher with me during the meetings). But he insisted that I wouldn't be replaced. Instead, they would hire around for someone who could do “some of what you're currently doing, but its for a completely different role” or some BS to that effect. Anyway, he emailed me the other day to advise that the new starter will be doing ALL of what I'm currently doing and I'll need to train them. Keep in mind, the only knowledge I have of me being “let go” is verbal. There are no email threads or notices or comments, just those 1 on 1 meetings with him. I can't afford to quit so I'll be staying…

Y’all see the old show “undercover boss”? Absolutely hysterical comedy these days, I can’t believe how hard US used to absolutely slob the knob of CEOs. The rewards the employees get are disgraceful, and they absolutely cherry pick the most kiss ass locations

Boss shouted at me for taking 1h10 lunch.

Hi, can I get peoples opinion on what happened the other day. I was sat on my lunch break about to go back to work when my boss comes in a starts shouting at me that I’ve been on lunch for 1h10 (I’d taken 40mins) I work as mechanic at a small garage, he said that I went off down the yard at 11:30 (I didn’t I was working on a car) and now it was 12:40 and I’m still on lunch, I said to him that I didn’t but all he kept saying back was that he knows I did and he watched me on the cameras (I doubt this as I’ve had to show him how to use the cctv system before and he didn’t really get the hang of it, I doubt he’s got a app on his phone but it’s possible) And then he said I’ve…
