Yeah it was remote they are based out of MA. Never got a write up for anything, no indications of layoffs, nothing. Just a chat request popped up and boom done.

Sucks getting blindsided like that. Well, and losing a job in general. Good luck and I hope you land on your feet with a job you like better.

Sorry to hear that TM. It sounds like you should land on your feet. It sure does suck in the mean time though.

So, do you have to send any shit back to them, or what?

This is the exact reason why I never felt the need to give 2 weeks notice. I would just take the work truck home, take all my stuff out and turn in the keys the next morning. I had more than one of those fucks beg me to work until they could replace me. I just asked them if they would have given me the same consideration if they had planned to let me go. None ever said yes.

Moral of the story, you'll be fine

Yeah they said they are mailing my paycheck Monday and I'll get a box to send the shit back. I should keep it fuck them!
[Reply]

Don't send shit, send nudes.

It will really make the job references down the road pop.

I’m just saying cash that check and make sure it’s good before you fuck with anything. And think about it before you do.
But fuck them, tm.

That's funny. You never received a box. Just the paycheck.

I still have 3 laptops sitting out in my garage from my last 3 jobs. They never sent me the return label. But I keep them in case some day they miss them.

True story.

It's a hard lesson, but one I learned years ago. Always look out for yourself and nothing but yourself. Loyalty doesn't matter.

My buddy has 3 really nice monitors sitting in his apt because his company sent him the whole order instead of one.

Gonna sell them soon, think he's had them like 8 months. He told them twice and they just don't seem to give a fuck.

It's strange companies don't hold your last paycheck or severance, PTO pay out, something until you ship their stuff back... I'd assume if nothing else, they'd want to format the drive, even if they plan on throwing it away.
