    Hello,

    many of the long timers on the board will recognize my handle and I am aware that many of y’all are older, wiser or more professionally suited to give me just a little guidance.

    a few days ago, kind of by surprised I was let go for to be exact “No longer being a state. And no longer being aligned with strategic goals and objectives” this came along with a severance offer that is in the mid five figures but really only represents about 25% of my yearly pay.

    obviously, I asked for any sort of example examples and there were none given.

    I know what a lot of of this stems from and I feel like it’s a bit retaliatory in nature against me expressing concern/blowing the whistle.

    I didn’t want to lay everything out here, but I was just hoping that somebody knowledgeable with tenure on the bbs would maybe engage me in a little side conversation. As mentioned, I know you’re a different handles and your longevity and I would just appreciate any insight. Y’all might be able to give.

    If you're dealing with a wrongful termination situation, you need to contact an employment lawyer.

    What you’re saying is that CFnet is better than AI for advice.

    If you documented your whistleblowing process, meaning screenshots, copies of emails, notes, dates, etc, you have a case.
