[QUOTE="Andy, post: 291319, member: 5096"] They are asking me if I will choose the option to bump someone with less senority out of their job OR if I will just accept a straight up lay off in the event that someone does claim my job. If I say I would like to look at the option of bumping another position, the person in THAT job would get the same notice as I did saying "your job is in danger of being taken from you". I don't know how many "small" programs are under the budget cutting block. When funds are pulled and jobs are loss then the bumping system starts. I work for the State of Minnesota. I will be fine accepting the straight lay off if that is the result. So, if indeed someone does come and take my job, it will be sad to leave that position but it will be o.k. if I don't have income for awhile. I wonder if I can get unemployment if there was a job available to bump and I chose not too? One question to ask HR. I am kinda looking forward to not working this winter. I will know for sure the end of next month if I still have this job or not. NO ONE knows what I do exactly so to have someone new in the position with no one to really train them in (I created the how-tos of this position - was told the basic end result management needed and had to figure out how to get there from scratch) will be interesting to say the least. I doubt I will have time to update my Standard Operating Procedure book but will see what I can do if this does happen. [/QUOTE]
