I was "temporarily" laid off end of May due to ongoing economic struggles within the company and they "hope to bring me back when things get better", but the company has really been not doing well for a while now, and I believe (speculate) that they are laying me off as they cannot afford to pay me severance. I could see them going bankrupt in the next year or 2. They had to close all but one of their locations, and cannot keep that one stocked and sell online as well with limited sales. I worked there for 8 years 11 months. Do I have any rights? I cannot afford to wait this out and wait for them to properly terminate me for severance.
