“Huh. What’s this? A spur of the moment Teams meeting with some VP whose name I barely know? Ah. And there’s HR. So it’s THAT meeting.”
Things at my current job are an such a massive shit show already. I imagine that my only reaction to such a meeting would be a full throated laugh, “good luck!” And just drop the meeting.
same.
they wouldn’t be fucked forever, but they’d certainly feel the long cold shaft firmly forced up their urethra for at least a good six months.
That’s exactly how it happened at my previous job :(
I got that call for saying I was “enjoying the view,” meaning the park-like landscaping out the window of an empty office I was admiring on the first sunny day of Spring. A woman in the hallway assumed I meant her butt.
I got a message from my boss today asking me to come into the office (I’m nominally fully remote). It’s probably fine, but…
Reminds me of when I sent the return to office emails out to my team.
I apparently fumbled the wording so badly that one of my longtime friends/coworkers sent me a text asking if there’s going to be layoffs.
Mine have always been they just show up unannounced, take me to a conference room, and lay me off that day.
I got laid off literally less than 20 minutes after I finished everything that needed to be done for that quarter. They told me they were waiting for me to finish, and that they had lied to my face about finding me a new position when they closed up my office.
The signs are often there. You know when they start finding time for you to do documentation, a layoff is coming.
Invite with HR Friday at 4pm.
My company always does them on Thursdays, which is when they run payroll and can cut them off cleanly without back pay owed.
If I’m layed off I get a huge settlement and a year of a good unemployement salary. Vacation time.
I’m more like “took them long enough to finally find one thing”
*inhales cigarette* “what took you so long?”
Inhaling a cigarette sounds very unpleasant.

Could be having you rat on coworkers
Wait, that’s a cardinal, am I reading pope vibes in this meme?
