You’re in a state with 12+% Unemployment! That’s your answer. Unless you are in a union, you have no significant recourse, in general. Even in a union, there’s very limited recourse. Just ask the auto workers when they shut down the Toyota/GM plant.
Take the transfer. At least you’ll have a job. They just shot down unemployment extensions, so those are now going to be limited. You can refuse to sign the paper if you like, but, again, 12% unemployment.
take the job.. dont cause trouble. get promoted..
or stay in job.. dont cause trouble.. look for another job
or stay in job.. do school (do they do tuition reim?) get better job
