    These people have rotted loyalty, are giving indifference to work ethic, and causing family issues.

    It just proves the truth of corporate America. It has no conscience, no ethics. And is helping masses shift to the Democrats...if only the Democrats could have a plan for those who come looking for a real group of leaders.

    I'd lay people off by e-mail, except operational e-mail is one of the "luxurious frills" our newsrooms usually do without.

    Plus, the instant I lay anybody off, our IT drones immediately spring into action logging the employee out of all computer systems, voiding passwords, revoking door-card clearance, etc etc.

    For some strange reason I seem to have an inordinate fear of former employees wanting to break back into the system and fuck me and my beloved company up. Can't really figure out why that worries me so much.
