<prompt> Human: Ive recently been let go from a salaried position without warning. Afterwards I was offered the option to resign on my own and that theyd give a reference if I do so. Theyd also require that I sign a release form. They told me that this would not affect my unemployment status, but that doesnt sound correct. Im not sure what to do in this position. Thanks!  <response>: That likely will affect your eligibility for unemployment benefits. Do not sign.
