'I’m asked to replace the charger... What should I do? Should I still offer monetary compensation?' he asked in desperation for advice

SINGAPORE: An employee who seemed to be in a pickle even after he got laid off took to social media to ask his fellow Singaporeans for advice. In his post on r/askSingapore on Monday , he explained:

Now that I’m terminated, I’m asked to replace the charger all of a sudden a few days later. What should I do? Should I still offer monetary compensation?” One Redditor said, “In general you can ignore such a request since your legal relationship with the company ended upon your termination. They should have raised the request during your exit interview/handover stage.”
