Should I negotiate my severance? after 9 years as a pharmacy technician

I was offered 9 weeks of severance after 9 years as a pharmacy technician, and I have a few days to sign. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. It includes health coverage for a couple of months. What did you ask for?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

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