The title of the last post was "Somewhat Officially Done" because today is officially my last day of employment with my former company. The other individuals who are affected are receiving the news probably as I write this.
I am receiving a severance package. I received two weeks pay in lieu of notice, and for signing a Severance Agreement, I receive an additional two weeks of pay. I had 62 hours of vacation accrued that was paid out. My former company is paying for my health insurance through the end of the year and I am eligible for outplacement services during this time as well.
I will be filing for unemployment, which is not something I ever really thought I would do. I have never been involuntarily unemployed. According to the Minnesota Unemployment Insurance website (http://www.uimn.org/index.htm), I can file for unemployment "the first business day you are unemployed or your work hours are reduced." So, since my employment officially ends today, I can file for it tomorrow.
