        Yeah, it is. He's leaving at the president's request. This equals, "please go ahead and clean out your desk."

        If employment termination for cause thats fired! Security will escort you out, now! If one is asked to resign services may be no longer needed for any number of reasons no negative reflection on the one leaving with a thank you for your service and retained sense of hornor!

        That’s firing you can try to color the outcome but when you are asked to leave “your fired” is how it goes down in your employment records

        Sometimes employeers are asked to resign because their job no longer exists! Your job is now done by a robot! Your employer lost a bid for a project so a reduction in force is necessary!

        In fact bunch of people let go and not replaced by robots but foreign contractors and younger people and they get to train them if they want severance. Called “laid off” but when you replace immediately nothing but “Firing at will” by the companies who reaped tax cut of $1.4tril
