He came to my office asking me why not show up these days after he layoff me, very very angrily.
I replied back " go fire me again and get out".

@Anonymous184833, i get the point, but there's no law that says they have to follow the rationale behind the law! if they want you to show up, you still gotta show up.
184788: You find it in the policy rationale behind the law. Usually, employers lay people off immediately after the notice or shortly after. The 60 days extra pay is to cover the average time it took most employees to get another job when the law was first passed.
@Anonymous184781, the law deals with NOTICE. Where does it get into what the employee should or shouldn't do during the notice period?
Guess you didn't know he was a checked out a hole before he laid you off. Ethical? the 60 days in the cal warn act are supposed to be spent finding or preparing for a new job. Q clearly doesn't care about that, just foolishly keeping people around with no incentive to perform and gambling some nut doesn't damage something
Chill bro
Kick his ass and get it over with will you?
Use the system to your favor....you feel anxiety, stressed, with suicidal tendencies, all these are due to the layoff and you stayed at home....period and see what he response is....
Cool bro
Challenge the director to a walkoff
OP, please get yourself fired. QC can pay your severence money to someone else.
Idiot director. He has only money and do not have education.
Maybe your director feels the pressure and feels that he could be next on the line
You should have grab him from the balls too and make him squeal
Don't care at all, are they going to fire you twice?
The worst thing you can do is burn bridges. Don't have to work over weekends and look thrilled to come to work after layoff, but be ethical and put in the time and work, for which you are being paid for. The dir screaming and most likely being an a$$, is just their normal (by Q standard) self... But you should maintain the ethical and professionalism.
I guess you don't need references...
Tell him you need to find a new job
If you are still paid, then the ethical thing to do is to work
layoff != firing;
you could still get fired
