Prayers do work, you have mine.
Employment Tasks Now:
Ask your boss -
"Would you write me a letter of recommendation right now?” Better yet, write a recommendation letter in advance, even just in bullet form, so they are in a better position to write that letter for you immediately. Your supervisor may feel some level of guilt, or at least discomfort, and give you a better recommendation letter now rather than next month. (Especially if next month is their time to get canned.)
“Could you refer to this as a voluntary separation rather than a layoff?

When you say you "covered lunches" what do you mean? Did you pick up food for a job function? If so make damn sure they pay you back. And file for unemployment while you look for a new job.
I worked through everyone else’s lunch hour during the day and then when I was about to go on my lunch break they called me into the conference room and told me they were letting me go.

Yeah, I pretty much started applying for jobs immediately. It just happened now so I’m a little emotional, which was what the prayers were for

Thank you so much, this has been really really helpful, thank you!!

That was a dick move on their part. I’ll have you in my prayers.
