I've had to fire a few people over the years but they brought it on themselves so I don't feel guilty.

Some bosses prefer to have others do their dirty work.

I have fired lots of people. Most of them were not doing their job.

It certainly wasn't a fun experience. I've had to lay off around a dozen people.

I'm not even allowed to fire people without another manager also signing off on it. I'm bottom of the management food chain ;)

I gave them all plenty of chances to get their sh** together, but it just wasn't important enough for them to.

It was a delight to get rid of my last fireee. I was on holiday and he got hired whilst away, he turned into a total waste of space.

And it was not any fun, unlike Mitt when he said he likes being able to fire people who serve him or the entertainment of mister comb-overs show's "You're Fired!"
