Should I negotiate my severance? after 14 years as a data-entry clerk

I was offered 14 weeks of severance after 14 years as a data-entry clerk, and I have a few days to sign. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I do not want to leave money on the table. What did you ask for?

Read the release carefully. Mine included things I did not expect, like a non-compete.

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