I'm no expert but if you've been offered a position by company B while laid off from company A the fact that company A laid you off still stands. You may want to talk to somebody who has some hard facts on the matter as these are bad times to be unemployed. In fact you may be better off by taking the offer and while trying to find something else while you're there.
