    I recently received two job offers within a week, but I'm finding that neither of them pays a living wage. The first offer is significantly lower than what I expected based on my experience, and to make matters worse, the benefits won’t kick in for several months. The second offer was a major lowball, so I felt compelled to negotiate. I'm currently waiting to see how that goes. It's frustrating to see companies post a salary range only to come in at the bottom. I wish I could understand their reasoning behind these low offers.

    I recently noticed an invoice for legal consultation regarding WARN Act compliance at my company, which has fewer than 200 employees. There have been a few terminations recently without any formal announcement of layoffs, but I have a gut feeling that larger layoffs might be on the horizon. The company is struggling to pay its bills, and the situation feels precarious. Given the circumstances, I'm starting to update my resume and considering my options.
