You can do whatever you want.
If you don't want to quit, just keep showing up until he fires you.

I'm sure that getting fired is worse then resigning.Originally Posted by MarchoftheBlackLions

if u resign and a company finds out they may be less likely to hire you, also when a person resigns a company gets paid by the government to find someone else (since it would be harder to find somebody to replace at a minutes notice)
he probably wants you to resign so he gets payment and gets rid of you, rather than him getting rid of you and getting no pay
(this is how it works in US, not sure about canada but it makes sense if he wants you to leave)

How so?
The thing that counts is, if you are an actual asset or not.
If you are working things out would probably require some initiative from your side, otherwise, they will let you go, regardless.
Walking out on your own judgement, before it's completely clear that you can't find an arrangement is just picturing you as a quitter.
If you don't want to get out of the job, don't quit, simple as that.
You can start to scout your options regardless.

If your future employee finds out you were FIRED from your last work place.. How does that look better then if you left on your own terms?
Most people quit jobs for school, or travel..
Getting fired means that you were a bad employee, and I'm not!
The arrangement he's giving me is to work more days. Which I can't afford to do due to school!

No.
Quitting is worse than getting fired.
If you can't maintain your own interest, at that level, you will never be able to maintain the interest of a company.
You have always to be convinced that you are a irreplaceable asset in what you do. In this sense, when you walk, you willingly hurt your employer. That's not really acceptable.
Tell him that you are working more hours than you started with and that you will fulfill your obligations.
When he keeps to try to make you go, do not comply in that idea, but just block it off and say that you don't understand what he wants you to do.
Think of arguments that present you in a good light and don't be afraid to personally take responsibility for doing your work and to assume credit where it is due.
You can picture it this way:
A school dropout vs. a person who failed to graduate are a person who is a bum vs a person who tried everything he could.
There is work for people who failed at even being mediocre in one regard, but there ain't any jobs for bums.

No, it doesn't. Getting fired isn't going to go on your permanent record and become a scarlet letter.
If a future potential employer asks you about your previous job and/or why you were fired...guess what you tell them...
"There was a scheduling conflict between school and the hours they began asking me to work."
That's it.
Getting fired or resigning in this situation won't make a bit of difference. What it will make a difference in is if you are eligible to draw unemployment benefits (Please note that I have no idea how the Canadian system works or even if you'd be eligible). In the U.S., quitting rather than being fired will usually carry with it extra difficulties when applying for unemployment benefits.
