This situation plays out exactly like having your partner break up with you and then hit you up for a booty call a few weeks later. The emotions involved are incredibly similar. There's that same sense of drifting hopelessness that comes after being broken up, which then collides with the emotionally befuddling rage and turmoil of being asked to come back and provide an essential… service. True, one is arguably more enjoyable than the other in more than one way… but both still end in disappointment.
The best thing to do with an ex, both lover and employer, is to cut off all contact and move on with your life, giving them not an inch more.
That's exactly what this employee, Redditor u/thefarmerdan decided to do when they were contacted by their ex-employer's HR department a month after being laid off. They were initially enraged at being contacted and let it ruin their day before becoming resolved to block the number that had reached out to them.
They posted this topic to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit after receiving contact from their ex-employer. Commenters were quick to condemn the employer for their actions.
