I Hate Firing People

Recommended Posts

The worst part of any management position is having to let them go. Just had to fire my executive housekeeper and well it didn't go so well. Problem is, and it is partly my fault, she has family that also works at this establishment. I have a huge departmental meeting about how things are going to change around here with cuts and extra work, and I hope they all don't walk out on me. What if any advise do any of you have when it comes to dealing with the aftermath of a firing?

Just remember that if the firing was warranted, that you didn't commit the acts that got the person fired, you just held them accountable for their actions/lack of.

Even when you have no choice and it's coming down from above you're just doing your job. It's really tough though, good luck!

thanks bro...it was warranted, it just gets annoying when they make up excuses after excuses when it comes to why they shouldn't be fired.

If they quit they're only hurting themselves... if they start screwing up on purpose to hurt you or the business, make it clear that you'll fire them too.

well I think most of them understand that if I am firing the exec than I can fire anybody if it comes down to it.

We had to lay off/fire a guy Friday. Hate doing it before the holidays but he was screwing up frequently and our work has slowed down a ton.

ya, times are rough and sometimes it needs to be done...problem is she was working her butt off probably figuring that she might get laid off..problem was all her housekeepers didnt like her very much and she was costing me too much housekeeping costs

I've only fired two people... mainly because we don't really hire that many and the ones I've had have been really good.

I had to fire a guy the week before Christmas last year... it really sucked, I hated doing it, but I had no choice. He wouldn't listen, wouldn't do what we asked, and was generally just a screw-up and was making my life difficult. He was pissed, wanted to argue about it, and I ended up telling him to get out...

Sometimes you just gotta do what you're paid to do... don't feel bad about it.

    • I think the qualification has changed over time though. A deep ball play used to take 4 to 6 seconds for the receiver to get to that spot on the field. Now a receiver can be there in 2.5. That's less time than most QBs have to set and throw. In my mind a deep route takes time to develop. A crossing route and a deep route can't take the same amount of time at full speed. You can have 4 deep balls on the same drive,  almost 5 if you do 5 20 yard throws goal line to goal line. That doesn't even make sense when you say it out loud. 
    • The sad part is it looks manicured enough that he's aware it's running away from him.  Also, I just wanted to give you some fun loving grief on King Haynes today having a chance to throw a game winning TD, and was wildly errant, and ultimately picked off to end the game.  So happy I won't have to hear anything else about The Golden Calf of Bristol lite ever again watching college football.
    • I just think Panthers believe in Bryce far more than the fans do and he is most likely going to be the QB at least the next two seasons. the real shot of us moving from Bryce is not getting an extension, till then they are going to give him every chance to succeed and I just want to win.
