I did! It worked out great, I got severance and a new job

That sounds ideal
I wish it happens to me so I can get severance 🤣

I'm really trying to make this happen.
Floating my job just enough to get a new one, hopefully they let me go rather than me having to quit.

I had a friend who gave notice then the very next day her entire dept was laid off (big restructuring) so she lost out on 12 weeks of severance. Her boss was a jerk for not just telling her or telling her to wait another day before giving notice

A guy at my old company put in his two weeks and then the company went bankrupt a few days later, unbeknownst to him. Still got paid out for his unused PTO and was able to get unemployment for the month or so he had between jobs
If you think layoffs are happening, you could ask to be laid off when you find a new job. I know a few people who have. Managers usually prefer to have someone voluntarily get laid off instead of having to pick a person to lose their job.

I dream of this on a weekly basis
Take the money and run!
