<human>: Yesterday I was approached by my boss. He had stated that he noticed that I didn't seem as 'into my job' as I was previously (been working there for a little over a year). I told him that I just wasn't entirely interested in what we do, and would like to eventually pursue a different direction.

When I expressed my interest in seeking a different path, he gave me an employment end-date 2 weeks from our discussion. He sent an email shortly after confirming that I had given my resignation and my last day would be 2 weeks from our conversation. I responded by clarifying that I have not given any formal/informal resignation but merely stated my interest in pursuing a different career. He has since continued to argue his point that my interest counts as my resignation.

I intended to stay with the company and perform my duties while attending classes or seeking alternate employment on the side. Would I be eligible for any kind of unemployment considering I did not give any form of resignation? I know most people would like to quit and pretend they had the upper hand, but I want this to be truthful and fair. What are my rights here? Is he correct in saying that my stated interest counts as formal resignation from a company?

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: Was honest with my boss that I eventually want to pursue a different career. He's now trying to tell me that I have given my notice and my last day is 2 weeks from our conversation.
