    Thankfully the laws aren’t always super dumb and take into account pretext. For example, if he said “If you don’t show up to work in San Francisco then I will take that as your resignation.” then it would be what’s called a constructive dismissal. It is in fact a termination, because the demands are so unreasonable precisely in order to get employees to quit. So he’d still be on the hook for any severance owed, etc

      He’s being sued left and right for… *checks notes… not paying severance. So I’m not so sure “on the hook for severance” means much either.
