If the temperature is 80F or better it would be best to collect the eggs within 24 hours or sooner. Some cultures will sell unrefrigerated "fresh eggs" up to a week after laying however in North America health standards dictate the eggs must be collected and refrigerated within a 24 hour period.

As for going bad, changes can take place within the egg as soon as 36 hours. With high temperatures and humidity the egg could be unusable for eating that soon. In moderate temperatures under 75F I have used eggs collected up to 48 hours later with no problem but only for farm use, not for sale to the public.

What is the difference between being fired and being laid off?

If you are fired, you are parting ways with your employer for good. Being fired often implies that you have done something wrong or have not performed as required. If you are laid off, you might, in theory, be called back to work by your employer at some future time if business picks up. Being laid off can imply that you were let go through no fault of your own, but only because business conditions were bad for your employer.
