Usually people are let go because they don’t fit in,

Probably more this than anything else. Am not a heavy smoker, don't use curse words for adjectives and go to work early and leave late. Yeah, didn't fit in, I guess. lol. Going to try for that one check as a matter of principle anyway.

Forget principle. Effort better spent on new job.

I figured that was the case.

If it was me, and the ball was already rolling, I’d go through the motions, on principle, just to show them that they can’t just get away with a denial so easily.

But it sounds to me like you benefited from being let go. You’re doing the same thing in a place that you like and fit into better. They did you a favor.

That’s the beauty of this economy. If you have a working brain, or body, or both, you can get a job, because there are a lot of employers who need stuff to get done. There are a lot of people out there who really don’t want to work at all. I feel like these people need to be so easily embraced and integrated into our society and civil structure (disabled, retirees and independently wealthy excluded, of course).

Sorry for the tangent.
Fight them on principle. It’s the best reason to.

I didn’t fit in at my last job either. I wasn’t a drug using, adulterous crook like the rest of the executive team.

Let it go. Move on have a happy life
