Learn how to get the most out of your termination. Such sweet words. Hah. I’m no advocate of abusing the system. But there is no reason not to get your fair share, because the term “fair share” is extremely subjective. You’ll never get get what you don’t ask for. I’ve not read the book myself, but just little tip if it helps.
My favorite tip: asking for extended healthcare while you look for a job. It’s a small incrememnt for the company, and a large help for you. In the current healthcare system, this seems only fair.
Also, ask for a letter of recommendation before you leave so you can hunt for new jobs with a glowing reference. Huge.
