Jobseekers are being gaslighted – all being told unemployment is their fault

I would tend to agree, but there is some asymmetry in the process.

An employer expects 2 week notice to provide continuity, but employees do not have that same expectation.

Obviously this is optional, but can stick with you if you need references.

I'm guessing that is in the US, as here in the UK no company would expect just two weeks notice!?

My current contract is pretty typical requiring a months notice either way.

And an employee expects a few weeks severance when being let go. Whats the asymmetry?
