Which is better?

[Deja Q]

If you're not performing up to expectations as percevied by management?

1. It's best that you get fired.

If you resign, you would not be eligible for unemployment benefits.

[Deja Q]

2. Fascinating. But wouldn't being fired hamper your chances of

getting another job more quickly?

[Mizmoon]

6. A new employer will ask for references

YOU decide who those references are. THey also need your permission before they can contact a former employer.

I'm sorry you're going through this. FWIW, I was once fired with impunity, but found a new job that paid twice as much. It's not an ending, it's a new beginning.

8. Not I. I know co-workers who had the conundrum, however...

and I became curious, even though it's been a while since.

5. In a right to work state being fired with cause eliminates

unemployment, I believe.

3. make them do it

If they want you gone, they are going to have to do it themselves.

Also you can collect unemployment if you are fired. If you quit, you cannot.

4. Negotiate a severance package that states that your position was

eliminated.

[Wickerman]

7. If you have a union or association talk to your rep

make management work to get rid of you. But either way, start looking for new employment.
