Firing someone on a plane seems like the worst thing you could do to someone. They have nowhere to run.
Although, having fired a bunch of people over the past thirty five years I can tell you that if it gets to that point, everyone is relieved when you pull the trigger.
“They have nowhere to run.”
And neither do you. If could get ugly, depending on the fire-ee’s disposition, if he’s packing heat, etc.
At least he didn't have him escorted out of the building.
You mean as opposed to being fired, given five minutes to pack their stuff into a cardboard box, and then thrown out a fire door as so many have been?
