Ex-Company offering me a 5$ gift card to sign documents 9 months after laying me off.

Like the title says, I was laid off from my previous organisation and, 9 months later, now they want me to sign some documents on Invention and Assignment Agreement- Supposedly states that everything I've built/invented while I was with them is their intellectual property and not mine. The thing that ticked me off is them saying 'we'll give you a 5$ gift card for signing this'. Now I wanna fuck around w them lol. How can I do this? Feel free to get creative.

I told my mom she should bring this to hr as how is she supposed to fix that? Pretend to smile the entire 1-2 hour meeting?

If we don’t eat the rich, The rich and the old WILL eat US

We need to unite in groups more than ever in the upcoming future, Real estate is the next thing to get stripped away after Wall Street took away pensions. https://youtu.be/eNo9HLgbax0 That's it, The reason real estate is astronomically going up in value is because it's not for us anymore, It's for corporations, And the wealthy who just want extra money for European trips, They took away pensions for everyone, So everyone who's left with no money are leveraging their property against the next generation, effectively eating the next Young generation keeping them in debt, It's more like a caste system developing, kind of like what you see in India. We are in the beginning of it, I'm sure. You usually see these type of drastic changes When there's a lot of activism, A lot of doomers, And people saying the world is going to end kind of like in the…
