It’s Friday, the day before the weekend and there will be some Sun!

    The firing of the employee went down earlier today.

    They decided to turn it into a resignation to save face.

    Had to step in to prevent it turning into an argument with their manager, but handled it well.

    The employee thanked me for my professionalism when I walked them to their car, and they hugged me goodbye.

    So glad I held a debriefing with their team afterward. It honestly helps me as much as it helps them.

    Still feeling a bit from it. So my self care starts now with a curried cauliflower pie from Country Cob

      Good work! Sounds like all handled it as best they could.

        All things considered for sure. Would have preferred a million other different ways to wrap up the week, but ending a tough situation with a hug ain’t too bad

          I mean, I told my boss to shove it up his arse. So trust me when I say it could be worse.

      Kind of miffed that you didn’t incorporate a song into it, but you got it done.

      Speaking of Country Cob, their vanilla slices are amazing! I’ve tried a few of their pies and wasn’t very impressed though, especially for the price.

        Can’t speak for their meat ones, but the vegetarian ones are great.

        I think it’s more that it’s a treat to have a place offer more than a bland token vegetable pastie

          That’s true. Curried cauliflower sounds pretty good.
