Things Bosses Say When They Fire People. by swtchicgurl: 1:31pm On Sep 06, 2013 |
For a boss, letting an employee go can be a stressful and even painful experience. Possibly that’s why making the firing process as easy as possible—for the person doing the firing—is something of a cottage industry. That’s too bad, because while terminating an employee is definitely hard for you, getting fired is way harder for the employee. So forget about your feelings. Whenever you have to fire an employee, clearly you must protect your business from any legal ramifications. After that, your only goal is to treat the employee as compassionately and respectfully as possible. Your feelings are irrelevant. Which is why you should never say any of the following: 1. “This is really hard for me.” to be continued.... 4 Likes |

6. “You’ve been a solid employee but we simply have to cut staffing.”http://www.inc.com/jeff-haden/the-10-worst-things-to-say-when-you-fire-an-employee.html Remember, when you fire an employee it’s all about the employee, not about you—and especially not about what makes you feel better. 1 Like |

I have had cause to fire three people, here is how they happened First, a personal driver that bashed my car in three consecutive days within one week of employment: Mukaila, bring the key and go home. Just go home. See me in the evening for your salary. I'm tired. (right inside traffic on Ajah-VI road ) Second, another driver that didn't show up at work: (By text) I don't want to see you again; just come and collect the salary for teh 9 days you worked. Don't bother coming again. Third, the project supervisor for a project I am part of (and the project manager): KB, we cannot continue with this contract. We have exhausted our budget for supervision. Please hand over the equipment to me by weekend. Thanks. 5 Likes |

I recommend you should read "It's OK To Have A Bad Boss" by the celebrity banker and motivational speaker Darlington Onyeagoro. It will help employees to know how to handle every boss at work. |

I guess those lines are for Naija. I hate firing an employee. Most of the times all I have to say is " ma'am, sir, buddy" I'm sorry I am terminating your assignment with the company. Not until the day I fired 1 Mexican and Cameroonian lol. Since then I dey divert the firing thing to my younger bro. But seriously it's a sad moment though not all of them. |

I know of a Boss who's scared of hurting his employees' feelings, he wouldn't drop a sack letter or announce it verbally to u... He would travel out of town and text this trash to ur cellphone ''You've been sacked, i hope u do find a place in ur heart to forgive me'' 5 Likes |

When my proprietress said the school is not growing, i need to change my teachers,, i pray God gives you all a better place, i said Amen. I was happy because she helped me, initially i wanted to leave but was scared. Now i got a better job double dat ponkious salary she was paying me. Sometimes, we just have to take every thing in good faith. 2 Likes |

Funny my ex boss once told me: Emmanuel! I'd be travelling out of the country today and we are having issues with the keys to the offices... Therefore, don't come to the office until I return... Childish huh! There and then, I knew what he meant, I went straight to the office and packed my personal belongings, reminded him of salary for the month and happily zoomed off the premise. The girl he was cheating on his wife with mistakenly admired me, and since thence until the day he fired me, it was third world war in silence between me and him. He will do anything just to humiliate me in the presence of the said aristo girl and any other lady. It's good to be ur own boss... 2 Likes |

Not until the day I fired 1 Mexican and Cameroonian lol. Since then I dey divert the firing thing to my younger bro. It can be tough. Especially when you remember you are throwing one more person (and his/her dependants) into labour market again. As another man's employee myself, I sometimes myself into that position. |

It's easy to fire employees. Just practice more often. Fire three of your workers every week and re-employ them so that you'll study their reactions and know the ones to wear body armor and helmet while firing. 3 Likes |

WELL BEING FIRED MAYBE PAINFULL BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN SACKED BEFORE. I ONLY KNOW THAT ITS PAINFUL WHEN YOU SUBMIT AN APPLICATION, ATTEND THE INTERVIEW AND AT THE END, YOU'RE PRAISED BY THE INTERVIEWERS AND PROMISED THE JOB. YOU GO HOME HAPPY AND YOU KEEP EXPECTING THERE MAIL, CALL OR TEXT. BUT YOU DONT GET ANY, YOU CHECK BACK A WEEK LATER AND ANOTHER DUDE HAS BEEN GIVEN JOB. IT REALLY PAINS. 1 Like |
