They claim that I wasn't "fired", just "laid off", because my job was eliminated; due to an overseas company buying the company. Being since they told me that my "lay off" would be permanent, isn't that "fired"?? 
Anyway, I can proudly stand in line with those who had a job eliminated (and was therefore fired - if you're in a similar position, feel free to call it what you want, I just prefer to say I was fired) due to an overseas company.
