I'm guessing she was negotiating a severance package. Even the dumbest, most self-aware person has to know your job doesn't survive this (regardless of where in the org the fault was).

Off topic but I was watching Dark Matter on Apple TV last night and was thinking "I wonder if stillstackin has seen this or read the book?"
reply
I read the book and thought it was okay -- Crouch is more of an ideas person than a great writer -- but haven't seen the show yet. It's on my list, though probably after Lady in the Lake.

Show was pretty good. I like the premise. I only sub to Apple TV for the months the Blue Jays are featured on Apple TV Friday night baseball games so I have to get through the Apple TV shows that look interesting in the next few weeks.

I assume you've already seen Ted Lasso.
I really enjoyed Sugar, but it's a weird show -- starts as very heavy noir, then shifts genres in a completely unexpected way.
reply
Yes, Ted Lasso is great.

Is the dark matter show good? I saw the trailer, but thought the premise was a bit weird.
reply
It’s pretty good.

Being a public servant there is very very little she could negotiate for in a severance. The only thing I can think of is health insurance coverage and what if any cooling-off period she would have before finding another job. Most of the stuff is already baked in when you take the job.
An interesting thing is that I cannot find anything about when her resignation goes into effect... most times when these people announce their resignation it has a set date in the future but with her... I cannot find if it was effective immediately or not

That latter part is part of what I was thinking. She could be done with the work/responsibility immediately, but still on salary (and insurance) for three or four months, etc. Plus at higher levels, there are sometimes intangibles (so if she has a car as a part of her position, she might maintain access for a period of time).
reply
Yeah for sure. I am sure her resignation is something along the lines of her last day is either this Friday or maybe the week after.

Interesting. No golden parachute?
