I've been laid off twice in the last 4yrs. once because the company went bankrupt and closed the office completely out of the blue. the 2nd because we didn't get the anticipated $50M in contracs from the EPA we expected. and in project based environments, when them PGM/Margin is eroding, the first thing they cut is expenses. and you're an expense, not an asset.
oh well. I hated that job anyway, so while nervous about getting laid off, I was relieved. I dreaded every day of that job.

Thanks for asking. I took all of the advice. Made it quick and just delivered the news, let it sink in for a few seconds, then gave him a short insight into the decision. Had my govt customer clear the office so he could collect his belongings and walked him out. He had a clue it was coming but was disappointed. Nice guy, but he couldn't cut it. Other employees thanked me afterward.

Most large corporations HR depts will only verify dates of employment. I don't even think they can say if "person A" was "fired/terminated" or not...just verify dates of employment.
