    I was offered 10 weeks of severance after 10 years as a machine operator, and I have a few days to sign. I am in Boston, in case local advice matters. I do not want to leave money on the table. What did you ask for?

    An hour with an employment lawyer cost me a small fee and made me feel much safer about signing.

    I asked for two more weeks and a neutral reference. They agreed to the reference and added a week.
