My Daughter Was Fired Today

[gldstwmn]

49. I've been in the work force for 44 years and am a keen reader of people.

The work force is completely different now. He can either evolve or get eaten. He fired this woman because she is a threat to him directly, wanted someone to do her job cheaper, couldn't control her or a combo of all of those things. I'll go further out on a limb and say this will cost the company more than it saves. Trucking has a multitude of issues right now and they think this is going to help? They might even be fattening up the bottom line for a sale. Regardless, the entire game has changed. People don't necessarily need to go to an office every day. What was once important to the Boomers and Gen X doesn't matter to the millenials. Only a weak manager manages through fear and control and those methods will ultimately fail them. Turnover and low morale hits companies hard. He'll be a distant memory a decade from now but they'll still be feeling the damages. I've seen these slice and dice types come and go. Their changes rarely stay in effect long term.
