It's a numbers game for me, and all numbers line up on 1/1/27. The management knows this is a possibility, I was planning to give them 4 weeks. Would it make sense to offer that they lay me off instead of someone else? I know they will be careful not to eliminate me due to age, I wander if they'd consider it though. Do not want to rock the boat right now, I was thinking that I gently and diplomatically suggest this without spooking them - I am afraid that they fear a lawsuit and that will not consider it. I am an IC.
Any higher ups here on layoffs - how would you react?
