Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Whoa! No Sh*T!
That is completely not the company I used to work for, now I am probably glad I dont. So slimy they are reduced to snakepitting their employees? When I got layed off I got a severence package even though I had only been there 2 yrs. I thought it was more than generous.
thanx,

New I bloody well wish I was a paranoid delusional...
Sorry, but it's true.
There are 10 types of people. Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
New This is M$-grade crap.
Has anyone asked a decent atty. about the legality of such a plot? It seems ripe for a class-action and above all:

Local and National PUBLICITY - surely worth a Marianas Trench full of lawyers. No? I mean it is patently a form of outright extortion, exploiting black/white Rulez regarding one's unemployment option VS signing UNDER DURESS (the legal term?).

Those ~200.. you mention - would seem to be more than enough to query and justify such a suit. And the evidence is there - surely each one got a copy of the forced 'contract'.

Guess I can't imagine intelligent folk just lying down and taking this without any effort to publicize the Corp crime (?) Especially! now in the Enron + spotlight. No brainer.



But what do I know..

New Technically, it's not under duress.
It's a legal offer for employment, with terms that are acceptible under Washington State unemployment law.

Unethical as all Hell? Yup.

Illegal? Nope.
