I didn't get it in writing because it was a conversation over the phone and so I sort of expected what came today.

I was fired without prior incidents in my boss's fit of rage, when I talked to HR they tried saying I left without permission (I was told to leave and not come back) when I left and that my boss had not fired me he was just upset and didn't mean it. I think they're going to continue to say I wasn't fired but that I left without permission. I'm just wondering what people would recommend doing, outside of lying, I won't lie. There's a lot that led to this incident, do those things matter?

Tldr: been screwed a bunch by ex employer, trying to make sure I get my unemployment if possible any tips?
