If he's good at job, keep him. If not, say tough. My guess is he's a loser/ass. Hoyt Aug 2021 #1

Every job I was at, if you submit your resignation you were let go. You showed you had no loyalty. TheBlackAdder Aug 2021 #25

So let hime stay just long enough to find a good replacement DBoon Aug 2021 #28

Yeah, but then, unless it's a RTW state, letting him go might add more issues and costs. TheBlackAdder Aug 2021 #35

I understand RTW as affecting union representation DBoon Aug 2021 #38

You would hate me then Polybius Aug 2021 #42

Nope, why would I hate you? TheBlackAdder Aug 2021 #44
