Ask your boss to summarize his choices for you in email. Print that email out and send it to your personal email. That would be important documentation for you to provide to an unemployment reviewer. Based on his three choices, you have a valid unemployment claim. Resigning to save face is still a firing. And quiting because your pay is reduced is still a reason to collect unemployment in many states. Also consider that many companies provide severance in the event of a firing. Saving face by resigning might cost you thousands of dollars. I'm not a lawyer.
