Performance assessments? That's just pointless in this case!

Wait, are they really not required to provide severance? That seems off.

I don't recall anything about performance assessments being necessary for a plant closing. That seems off to me.

I feel like severance pay is important, but it might not be the main requirement in this situation.

I remember a practice question about plant closings, and I think they had to offer transfers to other locations.

I think the employer has to give a written notice, but I'm not sure if it's exactly 60 days or something else.

I think the key here is to unzip the Traps_macOS_4.x.x.zip file first before pushing anything to the endpoints. Option B looks like the right way to go.

I'm a bit unsure, but I think configuring the origin settings to add the User-Agent header might be the correct action.

I've worked with RouterOS before, and I'm pretty sure the logs are stored on disk by default. I'll go with True.

This seems like a straightforward question about the steps in a performance test. I'm pretty confident I know the answer, but I'll double-check my notes just to be sure.
