Thread regarding General Motors layoffs

Better to be fired or offboard as retired?

Being fired brings the possibility of some severance pay. Leaving as retired gets a prorated teamgm bonus. any thoughts on which is better (assuming lack of RTO compliance is what gets me fired)?

Historically speaking, most wars have actually driven up government debt due to the immediate need for above normal spending. WW2 was an extreme case but with some googling you can see how the debt/gdp skyrocketed during that period. It does of course boost GDP for the Defense sector of the economy.

Of course war is approaching. the central banks do not want anyone looking at them when their system collapses. And make no mistake about it, collapse it must if they’re bringing us into the great reset.

War is their cover…

thank goodness the national debt is low, and the student loan debt is small, and ...
so we can give more bailouts
or maybe we can start a war to balance the books
it is not a matter of if but when and how now

Check the posted link. In many cases, Americans owe 8k or more. I wonder what average people with $8k balances @30%+ interest do to get by. The important thing is that they can totally afford to buy new GM cars. Everything is awesome.

You offered no counter-point so your post is null and void.

If you're fired for cause (including a PIP), you can't collect Unemployment.

I don't know if you can collect Unemployment if you declared you're retired, and therefore not planning to work.

Call the Unemployment Office and ask.

Retirement is best because noncompliance means fired. No severance. No unemployment.

I assume you mean laid off not fired. Getting laid off is preferable if you are ready to retire anyway because you might get severance and you can draw unemployment on them.
