[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have any personal stuff on your computer or in the office, now is the time to clean it up. You likely won’t have access to it once you’re let go.

I would ask HR how your system will reflect your departure and what they will say to a future employer- many places these days will only confirm dates of employment. It might be too late, but ask if you can resign in lieu of being terminated. You won’t be eligible for any unemployment benefits but at least you’ll never have to worry about saying you were let go.

Agree with PP about not burning bridges on your way out.

Good luck![/quote]

public trust background check specifically asks about resignation in lieu of being terminated. i'm not sure the semantics matter any more. what were the terms of the PIP? were you meeting them? I'm sorry, OP. take a min or two to breathe, and then work on your resume and give yourself a job of job hunting. aka, make sure you get up and out of bed every day by 10am, and spend at least a few hours a day finding job listings and crafting a resume geared toward each individual listing if you can.

I've been let go or RIFed a few times, and it really hurts, but you have to try to not take it personally no matter how personal it feels in the moment. [/quote]
