Once again the “new computing” has none of the disciplines of the “old computing.”
It amazes me they let these children do anything important. The lack of discipline, the loosey-goosey approach to Production, Change Management, Analytics and pretty much every aspect of computing amazes me.
Every time I do training on this stuff I keep asking “what about a) what about b) what about c) how do you know d)?” I get “umm... we never thought about that” or WORSE, “what do you mean?”
sheesh we had “consultants” at our church and their ideas were totally lame, angered people and were a huge waste of money
At least these people were told to their face that they were being let go. Used to be if you came to work on Monday and there was no phone on your desk you knew that you were laid off.
...Which is worse than being fired separately, or something. Or maybe she thought jobs were for life.
Live and learn. But she probably won't.

LOL, this type of stuff happened to past companies I worked for. When you lay off someone, you call them into the office, IT guys were already dismantling the passwords, desktop, security codes and were prepping the last paycheck the same moment they head into the manager’s office.
There was one guy I worked for that he had nothing on his desk, not even a picture or personal effect as he was fired so many times, he wanted the dignity to just walk out of the office with nothing but his check like it was nothing.
the times i was laid off(twice from two places) i was not allowed back in my office(they emptied my desk and i picked up my stuff later) and was escorted out of the building by the head of security... they took my ID/Security badges etc and my accounts were all terminated while i was being out processedHow not to do it.
