Layoff notice, what does the 60 days mean? (Charlotte)

My employer announced that the site will close and gave us written notice. They offered a retention bonus for people who stay. What did the workforce office offer?

I stayed for the retention bonus and looked for work on the side. It cushioned the gap.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
