Most companies, to avoid risk of lawsuit, will merely report that a former employee did work for them and not give a reason for termination, no matter if the former bemplyee had a glowing work record or was fired. People are quick to read through obfuscating euphemisms such as, "...has left to seek employment opportunities elsewhere," etc. The proper protocol here would have been to have simply said that Robert is no longer involved in support and Jenifer is taking his place.
