    The only good thing about getting laid off is 1) you can at least collect unemployment 2) It's easier to get another job because you weren't simply fired

      Oh I still got laid off, just later in the day.

      I think it messed with their plans to lock me out of everything after the meeting. Must be logistically challenging lining up all those layoff meetings. 🙄

          Great story on how you handled it. And totally agree with you on the IT guy. What a douche that he just couldn't give you a heads up.

          the insulting thing out of it is I paid for his beers! he KNEW I was getting laid off and didn't say "hey...maybe I should be paying for these" nope, gladly accepted my money. He tried to contact me after the fact and I just blocked him.

            OBJECTION!

            Men can be hot too.

            Furthermore, I don't know if @[email protected] is a man or a woman neither do I know their sexual orientation.

            So my comment was pervy, but not sexist. I deny the allegation!

              The best thing about getting laid off is still getting paid but not having to go to work.

              Having responsibility that they don't want you to abuse, and having a robust social net that requires employers to pay out an employee for a specified time (mine was 3 month) is amazing. (Go Belgium)

              A full 3 months of vacation and plenty of time to look for other jobs.

                  They are free to fire anyone they like. They are however not free to ruin peoples lives.

                    Overruled.
                    Sexism isn't gender-restricted, reducing either gender to a sex object is sexist behavior.

                      It probably reduces the chance of male workers telling them to fuck off. Or the higher ups hire those so they can sexually harass them

                        This is why I don't like to roleplay with you. 😣

                                Ready to be laid off, i can feel it coming considering the economy feels like its on stilts and my company scrapping the bottom of the barrel for projects to work on.

                                I don't own anything and don't have anybody.

                                Prepared for my NEET life.

                                        Which turns out to be a ton more costly than just paying the employees raise.

                                          Yeah you can. You forfeit UI if you quit voluntarily. You’d only lose it if you got fired for doing something illegal, I think
