Fired means you did something wrong. Let go means you were let go of your job through no fault of your own.

Fired means you did something wrong. Let go means you were let go of your job through no fault of your own.
- nvrspyx 4y agoWouldn't the latter be layoff? I feel like let go can be used for either; a more polite way of saying "fired" or an alternative to "laid off".
- nowherebeen 4y agoIt's an alternative to laid off I think. When I think of let go, I think more contract work or temp workers. They were let go, but they weren't laid off since they weren't permanent employees to begin with.
