Can you provide original memo or official link? - 回複：H-1B can be

He is Deputy Executive Associate Commissioner!

-- Memorandum from William R. Yates, Deputy Executive Associate Commissioner, INS, dated April 11, 2000:

"As long as the alien continues to provide H-1B services for a U.S. employer, most changes will not mean that an alien is out of status... As long as the employer/employee relationship exists, an H-1B alien is still in status. An H-1B alien may work in full- or part-time employment and remain in status. An H-1B alien may also be ... laid off or otherwise inactive without affecting his or her
status."

1) being laid off terminates employer/employee relationship, so it contradicts with "As long as the employer/employee relationship exists, an H-1B alien is still in status"

2) above quote differs from similar statement from USCIS' website, which link is official link

Q : Must an H-1B alien be working at all times?

As long as the employer/employee relationship exists, an H-1B alien is still in status. An H-1B alien may work in full or part-time employment and remain in status. An H-1B alien may also be on vacation, sick/maternity/paternity leave, on strike, or otherwise inactive without affecting his or her status.
