Thread regarding Kellogg layoffs

Idiots

Picked up my mail this morning and found a box in it. The return address was someplace in Utah. Turned it to the side and saw a small sticker on it saying Kellogg Company. WTF? What are these idiots sending me now? I figured the only other thing I'd be getting from them would be my final W-2, since I was laid off in August.

I opened it to find a slim box inside about an inch by four inches by six. Opened it up to find a Kellogg's Retiree Award. My name printed across the bottom. AND a note from John Bryant congratulating me on my retirement and thanking me for my years of service. What the actual f---? I didn't retire; I was thrown out to (supposedly) make the company more profitable.

I thought the idiocy would end when I got my final severance check, but I guess I underestimated the stupidity there in Battle Creek.

ROFL, I got one too. Yes I'm over 55 but had only been with Kellogg's 2.5 years and certainly did not apply for any retirement benefits. I didn't retire, they laid me off with 10,000+ other people. Guess they get to give themselves a big pat on the back for "honoring loyal employees". More likely they had boxes full of these things sitting around in some warehouse they were getting rid of.

Wondering if this person was over 55, and applied for his or her pension?

That could possibly be the reason for the plaque.
