[quote=Anonymous]Listen - in the real world - one months severance is excellent for only being somewhere 3 years. Most companies *may* give one week. You can work somewhere for 10 years and not get 4 weeks severance. As for the short notice, I wouldn't want to let someone go and then have a them, a possibly disgruntled employee, watch my children either. Its just a stressful situation to be in. I'm sorry the OP lost her job, but I can understand the way it was done. It doesn't sound like they were jerks - it sounds like they were totally nice about it. OP, if you truly care about the kids and family, take it at face value - they just cannot afford you anymore and they were respectful enough to not ask you to take a pay cut. Maintain the relationship both sides want and get a good reference to find a new job. [/quote]
