ok so my boss just came in...

alright so i've been working at my job for about 4.5 years now...my boss just walks in and out of no where "oh by the way...i'm selling this office and the deal's going through on friday"

yeah thanks ass. so basically as of friday i'm not working here anymore. i don't really have a problem with it because i've actually been looking for a new job, but he tells me 4 days before the deals done? just thought that was a little shit hahaha...

but whatever...i'm not doing any work this week hhehehe

I'm not sure of US laws but there's usually a need here for some notice to be given either way.

Lol, in Belgium you need to report this at least a month in advance. Talk to someone who knows the law, I'm pretty sure you can get extra money because of his error.

screw him and buy a gun.

Yes you're right. He was being rude and dishonest, but while doing this he made a serieus error. Because an employee has a legal period of time that he has to keep working. For example if your boss fires you, you can keep working for 2-3 more weeks (this depends from country to country). Since he's not getting this, I'm pretty sure his boss needs to pay a fine.

employment laws vary state to state, but generally employers have the right to lay you off/fire you with absolutley no notice. in fact large corporations will call you into HR, give you a pink slip, security will escort you to your cubicle to pack your things, and you will be shown the door. sounds cold but thats how its done.

Hey FloorFiller since you were layed off/fired see if you can get some unemployment payments. =)

Posted by jdat on Jan-31-2006 12:37:

Severance package + financial assistance to find a new job + unemployement + several months of salary

That's what I would ask if I were you. I'm pretty sure you can get at least 2 of these things.
Check with labour laws. Osha isn't it?
