But that is not true, what makes you believe this?
If the remedy is a lateral transfer, I'm sure there are a lot of workers who would prefer that to unemployment, however from all reports, no one has been given an opportunity to do anything other than 1) accept the buyout, 2) resign immediately, or 3) be fired.
Because they are not at-will employees, they can only be fired under certain circumstances and a while a reduction in force is a valid reason for terminating them, it's the way they're going about it that's a huge part of the issue.
They are not following proper lawful procedure for conducting these separations and the way they are treating the workers is particularly egregious. Losing one's livelihood, especially for career professionals, through no fault of your own, is a traumatic and oftentimes life-altering experience. You would think that just about EVERYBODY should understand this due to people being sent home & losing their income due to COVID.
The most disturbing aspect out of all of this is the appearance that Trump, Musk & their supporters are intentionally and with malice I would even say, making this as traumatic and painful as possible, turning it into a spectacle that is then broadcast to the world on X?
There is a whole lot more I could say about it but I guess that I should ask if you are the same person I thought you to be or do I have you confused with someone else? This person, I thought, said that she retired after closing down her law firm.
