<prompt> Human: A little about my previous company, this is a company that used to occasionally force uncompensated overtime. This seems to have changed when they were recently bought out by a bigger company. This is a company that has lowered salary without notice before; of all their low and mid-tier employees. This is a company that has laid one of its essential mid-tier employee off, and re-hired them back 2 years later. This company is starting to outsource its products to another country, yet still says its current employees will keep their jobs due to remote training of the new people, and some tech support; most of them dont believe it. My problem: I was laid off from my current employer after being there for 7 years. 2 Months before the lay-off, I basically trained a new employee to do my job. The layoff was quick and unexpected, 9:30am on a Friday.This is my first time being laid off, so I do the right thing and file for Unemployment, go through the waiting week, and on the second week while its still pending review; I recieve a call from my former boss. We made a mistake and still have enough work for you, would you like to come back to work for us?Somehow I feel this is a trick for them to get out of paying out unemployment, or something along those lines. Ive asked a few people in the company, half saying its probably a trap. rpersonalfinance seems to give out good advice, can you guys help me out?TLDR; I was laid off from my employer, then asked to come back, feels like a trap.  <response>: Screw them. Not without an obscene increase in pay. Id probably just immediately list twice my current salary.
