Overview

"We've written this book to help you negotiate the best possible severance deal.Maybe this just happened to you. Maybe you are worried that it might happen to you.You are called into your supervisor's office, a human resources person is sitting there, and your boss starts by saying, ""This is not going to be a pleasant conversation.""Within ten minutes, you discover that you have been laid off. You might also find out that that your email account has already been locked, that you must immediately remove all personal items from your office, and that you will hand in your company ID badge today as you walk out of the building for the last time (perhaps escorted by a security officer.)But before you leave, your boss adds, ""I'm so sorry we have to do this, as I really care about you personally. Luckily, I've been able to get you a decent severance deal. All you need to do is sign this release letter.""Not wanting to jeopardize the ""gift"" they are offering you, you lean over the desk to sign the letter.STOP! Don't sign anything!Never agree to anything in that meeting.The dance has just begun."
