This is literally how they should works as directed by federal WARN act. Usually corporations just cut ties and pay out at least 60 days tho because it’s easier for both parties and you can get some concessions from employees like a gag clause
That’s the bit that makes no sense though. A lay off means I get to fuck off. Bye. You cut ties with me. Pay me what I’m owed and then leave me be to find new work. Do not expect me to work knowing I’m being let go.
