My boss said I resigned. I did not resign. Do I have any rights.

I work for Honda of Mentor Ohio (Penske Automotie) for 7 years, did a beyond a good job as a sales manager and was paid well and well liked.

The vice president took a dislike to me and wanted me out (paid too much, wanted a younger guy) even though my performance was outstanding and I got along well with others.

In a nutshell, I was sitting in my office with my immediate boss. I asked if the higher ups wanted me to resign. Boss replied yes. I walked out of the office to cool down. Ten minutes later returned and was told that my boss had called the higher ups and said I resigned, when I did not. I called the higher ups and told them I did not resign. There was nothing in writing.

Aside: Why would I resign? The supposed resignation date is 6/30. A closing on a house I had just purchased was on 6/5. I lost the house and my dream job. I am 50. They replaced me with a 31 year old.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to your response.

Paul
