Get them to let go of you, so you can get unemployment

Sometimes when an employer needs to do layoffs, they will accept “volunteers” to take a package. Avoids the legal wrangling.

lol my manager too - and I’m like “honey you’re gonna have to do it” (I want my 2 months of severance)

Wait they think you'll just quit to do the company a favor by avoiding severance and unemployment contributions?

Yeah no

Make them do it. Get that severance money while drumming up freelance and finding another gig.

Straight out ask your manager if he/she is asking you to resign? If the answer is yes, ask to see the severance package. If you resign you won’t be able to apply for unemployment.

Welp that sounds like their problem. If they want you gone they have to pay the price. You don’t want to be out there without the possibility of getting unemployment.

Don’t get intimidated. Show them you are not afraid.

Its for the severance and unemployment. Just stop going.

@CD2 yes

Like everyone else is saying, try to get them to lay you off. I've been dropping not so subtle hints that I'd be fine with being part of layoffs, which we're all kind of anticipating will begin in late Fall.

There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?
