If something rarely happens, it's just another way to say that it happens. So I'm not sure why you're arguing like the above poster is saying it never happens.

If something rarely happens, it's just another way to say that it happens. So I'm not sure why you're arguing like the above poster is saying it never happens. Not to mention even in the case you're posting it's probably not the same as if you get fired from a job, where maybe security escorts you out immediately and you pick up your last paycheck next week. And it's not as if the transcription discloses all the details of this event either. Things like severance and whatever contract obligations GE must fulfill that simply don't existing for rank and file employees. Which is kind of the point. Even when the language is the same, being "fired", the actual circumstances and details are usually much much different between executives and low level employees.
