- icebraining 11y agoAccess was removed from Github. Not necessarily from his email.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoSure, I don't think anyone claimed otherwise. Pulling your repo access without notification isn't exactly what most people would view as, "parting ways with 'the utmost respect for each and every person'".
- vecinu 11y agoThis is like being escorted out of the office. You no longer have access to company resources. Why does this seem so foreign? Why would repo access still be needed?
- jsprogrammer 11y agoWho said it seemed foreign? Why would repo access be terminated without prior notification? The only topic here is how this behavior deviates from how Twitter claimed it would handle itself.
- apetresc 11y agoWhat is disrespectful about removing repo access? What, did he need to fix those last-minute bugs for his former employer?
- zorpner 11y agoThe disrespectful part is discovering that you've been laid off via a side effect of the layoff, rather than being told by a person. It's true that layoffs are (even more) difficult and complex in the case of a remote employee, but this doesn't mean that we should see something appalling and simply throw up our hands and say "what were they supposed to do". We solve complex, difficult problems every day -- when the solutions are valuable to us. This is a demonstration that treating their employees with respect is not valuable to Twitter.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoHe could have unpushed work, or some tools that he would like to recover. Effectively, wasted effort. Also, I could imagine it being frustrating trying to figure out why your access has been revoked for two hours until some company rep calls you to tell you that you are no longer wanted.
