Under certain circumstances and if I could afford it, then yes I would give it up for someone less fortunate.

Many people would not, but some would, perhaps your father was hoping to get laid off so he could get unemployment and also help someone along the way, but I give it the benefit of the doubt and say he did it because he's sick or just a great person.

I'm not in a position to give up my job for the charity of someone else. Perhaps you dad believes he will quickly find another position. Also, it could be that this is just the start of the layoffs and so it's not as big a sacrifice as you think.

Depends, would I be able to get another job? and how badly did the coworker need the job... those are the things I would think about

Your father is a man with conscience, he is wise. Jesus gave his life for us, and that Is what your father just did,

Would you give up your job for Simon or Randy? No way.
