Should I Help My Former Employer With Any Request Even After a Lay-Off?

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

So I was laid-off last month and I had returned all of my work items that I used from them including an iPad and iPhone for work.

After that I tried to negotiate my severance agreement to extend my health insurance coverage for one more month and 3 paychecks but they denied my negotiation request due to my tenure with the company. (worth a shot)

Now they need me to send them codes to actually unlock the iPad/iPhone but I refuse to respond to their request since they didn't accommodate me, why would I accommodate them? Plus how do I know if these phones will just be given to a dude/chick that they hire to replace me? Also, I thought they can just reset the phone system with Apple or something.

Is that fair game or should I just give them the codes?

My former employer asked me if i can help train the new guy they got for a few hours.

I said sure, at a minimum rate of $100/hr. They said, ok nvm, we'll just ask you for help if we need it.

I told them any consulting i give them will be billed at $100/hr



I had to get screwed over a couple of times to learn to stop doing shyt for free. NOTHING you do for a company should ever be for free unless you are a 1st year lawyer doing pro-bono work for a firm

The cost to replace the phone and ipad will be less than they would be paying you, so...no.

Contract yourself out and get paid. I've been through this.

They need to pay your for your services. Your rate per hour. Minimum of 3 hours billed as well.
