No. You get fired for being a dumb###, like checking the tank level of a fuel truck with a cigarette lighter (I fired a guy for that). You should be ashamed if you are fired. Unless, of course, your boss is a $#%%#!!! and fires you for no good reason. That is not your fault and nothing to be ashamed of there. Just angry!
Getting laid off is not your fault and there is no shame in that. Just a business decision. A sucky one, but still just business.
