As I said above, he wouldn't be working a month's notice if he had
been fired. "Resigned by mutual agreement" is more likely. I guess
either a) he didn't fit in in the office, b) the job turned out to be
not quite what he was expecting or c) he had some kind of major change
of plan. None of those options really makes for a good rumour.
