More layoffs?

Wow that's a B**ch, our departement was re-engenered out of existance and most of the employes were found a position in one of our sister offices. The only problem is the office is like 2hrs aways.

So my co-worker asked if there was a severance package offered for those who didn't want to go that far. Since our positions are being eliminated you usually have a choice to move to the new place or take a package and leave. You know what our manager told him? "If we look into this for you, we'll take that as your two weeks notice that you are leaving." In other words, if he asks for information, he has to quit without knowing if there is a package or not. They came back to him two weeks later and told him "sry but the package was offered and expired a month ago". So he's getting laid off with nothing...

Talk about corporate BS...
