No, because they offered me 2 lateral positions…both offer letters on the table (I declined)…I did not get severance.
So you quit.
Your employer asked you to perform a role and you declined.

Do you work in the plants? This shite never ends if you do. It usually happens around the Holidays every year. I've got 30 years of Christmas layoffs under my belt. You might want to get into a different field.
On a brighter note, unemployment is $275 a week.Yet, in Texas its $577. Well, that's not really a brighter note, but thats Louisiana.

Whoa. Sorry brother!
I may purposely get fired tomorrow when I punch one of my young engineers in the face with HR in the room. Hold the phone.

I’m the non-diverse candidate.
Hopefully it’ll all work out.

So you decided to walk away from a job that offered you no severance but did offer you the choice of two other positions?

This isn’t getting laid off

I've been laid off twice (oil & gas). Both times I came out ahead on the other side. This very well could be a blessing in disguise. Enjoy the funemployment time off, but hit the job search hard as well. It's a good time to do the things you always said you wish you could get to if you had more time.

I was laid off about a month ago from a plant contractor. I almost got fired. Their policy is that every worker has "stop work authority," if they see something unsafe. I saw something that appeared unsafe and I stopped work. They told me to get back to work or your fired.

You got 2 lateral offers with the new company.
You declined.
That is quitting.
Which is why you don’t get a severance.

48 should be 110-115. I’ve developed a bit of a gap there

Right.
He quit and got a job the same day. Thats what he wants us to know. Weird flex but fits his MO.

Hell, I asked for a layoff a couple weeks ago. Got a clean RIF.
Fat bank account and a grand a week in unemployment in hand.
Toughest decision I have every day now is which motorcycle I want to ride.
I'll take a call come spring time.
