<prompt> Human: US Im getting laid off from my job of 8 years in 2 weeks. My company said they might have another position for me. If I refuse that position, am I putting my severance at risk?Assistant: You would have to ask your employer. Human: Yeah, thats not going to happen. I dont trust my managers, unfortunately.  <response>: How do you not ask them? You literally have no choice since they are likely the only people who can answer this. The only other possibility is if it is set out in your terms of employment. Which is rare.
