Putting in OT to train my replacement? No thanks!

I put in my two weeks notice on Friday. It took the company until Tuesday to realize I meant my resignation, and until Wednesday to decide on a replacement. They told my replacement to begin training with me immediately, yet still pulled her away for three hours so that she could do her original role in an entirely different department and begin trying to train someone to take her place. Now they want me to come in early, work through or cut my lunch hours short, and are trying to get me to cancel my planned PTO (taking off tomorrow and Tuesday for the holiday, with my last day of work being next Friday). I told them absolutely not!! This is a prime example of why I'm leaving. Company was bought out six months ago. Since then, we've lost about 70% of staff across the board, most of whom they…

Company was bought out six months ago. Since then, we've lost about 70% of staff across the board, most of whom they laid off. Profits fell down to .02% for our company after the merge, and my own department went from 12 employees in January to 2 as of July 8. They haven't paid our invoices, ignored multiple calls and emails asking for help with staffing before it ever got so bad, and are severely lacking integrity all around. I can't wait to get the hell out!!
