Thank you willyjo for the kind words to me. Your advice here about the file is exactly correct. Lovely Chica the only thing you'll ever need from this jerk again is unemployment insurance, which requires no contact on your part and a W-2 at the end of this year if you worked any this year there.
When you apply for other jobs in the future, you'll only need to touch very lightly on this job experience, mention that though you worked for them for nearly two years, the situation did not end well, as he decided to replace you with a local person.
But be sure and stress the positive experience you had there, the things you learned, the types of things you dealt with on a daily basis, and then move on quickly.
If contacted for a reference, I suspect they would certainly confirm that you were employed there, that is all you need from them. In the meantime, a thousand pages of employment records, your whole personnel file would not have any meaning or use for you. You're not suing him, you do not have a case that any of us could see for anything further.
Do not waste any more thought and effort on what has happened to you here. Take the valuable parts of this experience and keep them, move away from the rest.
